Executive Compensation

The Law Offices of Michael Bartolic, LLC advises executives of both public and private employers in Chicago and around the country with respect to the various boundaries and benefits in executive compensation.  We represent the executive in negotiating the terms of the executive agreements with an eye towards the interest of the executive, ensuring your long term financial interests are best served and risk of noncompliance with the many applicable Internal Revenue Code sections is minimized.  Working within the constraints of various tax code sections, including 409A, 162(m), 280G, and many others, we work to negotiate the most favorable possible terms of the various retirement plans, equity compensation, and other deferred compensation.  

The firm also represents executives facing claims for clawback or forfeiture of compensation under the terms of an executive agreement, deferred compensation plan, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act.  If you are an executive with any deferred, incentive, or equity compensation, call us today to see how we can help you.
