Andy's work is informed by his belief that a company's greatest asset is its employees. Whether he is crafting an equity-based program, a deferred compensation arrangement or a 401(k), pension, or fringe benefit plan, he provides practical solutions that serve his clients' needs. He has been ranked among the top Employee Benefits and Executive Compensation lawyers in New Jersey for four consecutive years (Chambers USA).

The rules and regulations governing compensation arrangements are complex and frequently changing, and businesses sometimes discover that their benefits plans are no longer in compliance. Under such circumstances, clients appreciate Andy's ability to think outside the box and suggest solutions that avoid costly problems.

Andy has a successful track record representing clients on either side on many issues. He has represented employers that sponsor 401(k) and pension plans, as well as the third-party administrators of such plans; businesses hiring and recruiting senior executives and the executives being recruited; and companies acquiring new businesses and those divesting them.

Andy also handles fiduciary and other benefit-related disputes. He counsels clients through the prelitigation phase, and, if necessary, the litigation process itself. Despite the complex and myriad regulations in his field, Andy makes a point of communicating with his clients in clear and understandable terms, providing them with the knowledge and guidance they need to move forward successfully.
