EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The benefits you offer potential employees can be the deciding factor in whether they want to work for you. At the same time, employee benefits are often one of the biggest expenses for business owners. With so much on the line, it’s important to review your options and compare them with your budget. Our team can help analyze which employee benefits make the most sense for your business, as well as help you set up and maintain accounts.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION STRATEGIES

When deciding between offers of employment, many executive-level candidates will lean toward the one with the highest base salary. However, providing other incentives, such as deferral plans, is another way to give candidates a reason to join and stay with your company. We’ll work closely with you to devise a strategy for base salaries, benefits, bonuses, and long-term incentives.

BUSINESS CONTINUATION STRATEGIES

Should something happen to you or a business partner, are you properly covered? Buy-sell agreements help to ensure that there is an exit strategy that protects all parties involved, including your families. Life insurance can be an ideal way to fund such an agreement, but it takes complex strategizing and is different for every business. We are experienced in continuation strategies that are tailored to you and your business needs.
