I engaged Emily Morrison at Nixon Peabody for guidance on a complex ERISA compliance issue related to our company's pension plan restructuring. Her technical knowledge in Employee Benefits law was evident and aligned with her recognition in that field. She provided a thorough analysis of the regulatory requirements and helped us avoid a significant filing error. However, the experience felt somewhat transactional. While her written memos were precise, responses to follow-up emails often took several business days, which created some anxiety during our tight timeline. Our initial consultation also felt a bit rushed, leaving me with a few unanswered questions about the practical implementation of her advice. For straightforward, document-intensive ERISA work, Emily is certainly capable and knowledgeable. For clients who may need more frequent touchpoints or strategic counseling beyond the strict legal analysis, setting clearer expectations on communication at the outset would be beneficial. She is a solid attorney for the technical aspects of the job.
