I’m an executive in a corporation and need counsel on my benefits package.

Got it — you’re looking for executive-level benefits counsel. That typically involves a more tailored approach, potentially including:

1. **Qualified Plans** – Like 401(k)s and defined benefit pensions, but with contribution limits.
2. **Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plans (NQDCs)** – Let you defer more income than a 401(k), with more flexibility but also more risk.
3. **Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans (SERPs)** – Company-funded, non-qualified plans to bridge retirement income gaps.
4. **Equity Compensation** – Stock options, RSUs, performance shares, or phantom stock.
5. **Executive Perks** – Such as health insurance enhancements, financial planning services, life/disability insurance, and split-dollar arrangements.

To give you meaningful counsel, could you let us know:
– Are you negotiating a new package or reviewing an existing one?
– Are you looking to reduce taxes, increase retirement income, or something else?
– What’s already included in your current benefits?

With that info, Messett Financial can outline your options and help you optimize them.
