Transactional Employment Due Diligence
Advising buyers and sellers in mergers and acquisitions on pension and benefit plans issues to preserve value and to mitigate liabilities and fines.
Overview
Our team prevents deals from derailing by identifying employment risks and equipping clients with a sound strategy for combining or separating workforces in a merger or acquisition. We guide employers through dynamic issues to optimize labor and employment agreements to ensure successful corporate transactions. Our team can help underfunded pension plans, incorrect wage calculations, and unions competing to retain representation of merged workforces busting a deal.
Our services include:
- Conducting employee benefit plan due diligence for corporate transactions, devise benefit plan transition strategies, and advise on pre- and post-transaction compliance issues, plan mergers, and spin-offs
- Negotiating third-party administrator agreements and other contracts with benefit plan service providers
- Providing guidance on plan operational requirements, important changes in laws, and plan qualification and reporting failures
- Defending employers in ERISA and employee benefit plan litigation
