Continuing the Conversation from NCEO in Milwaukee

It was great to see you at NCEO in Milwaukee and connect amid all the energy of the conference. We appreciated the opportunity to introduce you to the LP team and highlight how we partner with clients and the breadth of our capabilities.

Levenfeld Pearlstein, LLC (LP) has extensive experience in the legal and financial issues involved in the formation and administration of Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) and has represented clients throughout the United States in various aspects of ESOP transactions.

Our attorneys are nationally-recognized for their experience in working with owners who have sold their business to an ESOP and for their skill in assisting ESOP companies comply with the complex
laws and regulations involved in the administration of their plans. Our attorneys also have experience restructuring companies wishing to form an ESOP to fully realize preferential tax benefits available to them.
