In addition to her work supporting the firm's M&A activities, Carin routinely advises clients on the implementation of tax-qualified, non-tax qualified, welfare benefit, and equity compensation plans. Additionally, she works with clients to negotiate employment and severance agreements and change-in-control bonus arrangements.
