Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Creative design, thoughtful consideration of how to build a plan that can be easily explained to non-practitioners/plan participants’
‘Brian Tiemann is solid, practical attorney with detailed knowledge to tackle tough issues and questions, respectful of the need to manage time.’
‘We have followed the lawyers to McDermott because their knowledge of ERISA is unmatched; they have the ability to explain a complex area of the law in a way that others can understand; they are efficient in their work and stand by their budget; and they are highly responsive and helpful.’
‘Brian Tiemann is beyond critical for his historical knowledge of our plans due to the multitude of M&A activity that has occurred over the past couple decades. When legal opinions/recommendations are requested, his write ups are always comprehensive and provide purposeful explanations. He is also invaluable in providing support with difficult inquiries that myself and my team deal with on a fairly regular basis. ’
