Calhoun Law Group, P.C. is one of the few law firms in the country
to maintain a strong emphasis on governmental employee benefits plans. This includes
representation of states, localities, federal government agencies, and international
organizations with regard to their benefit plans, as well as representing governmental plans
themselves, and boards and agencies charged with administering such plans. For
example, the firm's shareholder, Carol V. Calhoun, has
represented numerous state and local retirement systems on employee benefits matters, and
is the author of the Governmental Plans Answer Book.
The types of plans we deal with include not only standard pension (both defined benefit
and defined contribution) plans, but the full array of governmental plans, including
403(b) plans, 457 plans, excess benefit plans, 401(k) plans, cafeteria/flexible spending
plans, and a wide variety of welfare (e.g., health, life, and disability) plans.
In addition to our client work in this area, the firm maintains
the employee benefits legal resource
site, which includes a wide variety of legal research tools for governmental employee
benefits professionals. Its shareholder, Carol V.
Calhoun, moderates online discussion boards in the areas of governmental plans, 403(b) plans, and 457 plans. She
is also the author of numerous
articles, and a frequent speaker, on governmental plans issues. She is a member
of both the National Association of Public Pension
Attorneys and the National Council on Teacher Retirement,
both organizations of professionals involved with governmental retirement plans.
