Employee Benefits

Want to offer competitive employee benefits, while still controlling costs? Employee benefits services through Alpern Rosenthal can help. Our professionals apply extensive experience to helping businesses like yours align benefits strategy with the bottom line.

Our team works with you to not only establish, but maintain, employee benefits programs — programs that optimize tax efficiency and ensure your employees receive the benefits they deserve.

At Alpern Rosenthal, we offer a broad range of benefits services including:
  • Plan design and implementation. Our experts can help you develop retirement plans, deferred compensation, cafeteria plans and flexible spending accounts.

  • Executive compensation consulting for tax and ERISA issues. Turn to us for up-to-date information on options, stock- and insurance-based compensation, and equity-based plans.

  • Consulting on employee benefit tax-savings opportunities, deferral techniques and cost-saving strategies. At Alpern Rosenthal, we're determined to discover the methods that help you make the most of your benefits plans, and really grow your business.

  • Assistance with merger and acquisition issues. When mergers and acquisitions affect benefit plans, we provide invaluable guidance.

  • Compliance reviews. Reduce the cost of compliance under IRS or DOL audits and prevent plan disqualification.

  • Liaison services with IRS and DOL. Alpern Rosenthal can ease your load by acting as your key representative with the IRS and DOL for matters involving plan examinations.

  • Third party administration and record keeping. Alpern Rosenthal remains on top of defined contribution plans like 401(k)s, profit-sharing plans and ESOPs with dedicated administration and precision record keeping.

  • Preparation of IRS Forms 5500, summary annual reports, and assistance with other reporting and disclosure requirements under ERISA. Our firm can be your one-stop resource for effective preparation of a variety of reports and federal tax forms.

  • Discrimination testing. Looking to test a 401(k), 401(m), or 401(a)(4) plan? We can help with these, as well as perform cross-testing of "new comparability" retirement plans.

  • Fringe benefit plan reporting and taxation. Look to us for comprehensive reporting support for these and other plans. We work to really understand the plans you have in place, and the most effective way to report your information.
