Simplifying the Complicated

Baumgard + Fedance will guide you through employee benefits matters and business transitions with clarity and expertise.

Trusted guidance. Strategic outcomes. Practical solutions.

Here's a quick look at what we do, who we’re proud to serve, and why it matters.

What we do

We counsel clients through the legal issues that matter most—those that shape companies, protect people, and influence futures. Our work sits at the intersection of business, benefits, and transitions.
But, at the core of what we do is simplifying the complicated. From retirement plans and ERISA compliance to business succession and M&A, we bring clarity to complex problems and provide smart, actionable solutions that move your goals forward.
  • Counsel on the impact of existing and pending legislative and regulatory activities impacting retirement assets
  • Retirement plans and fiduciary compliance
  • Business formation, transitions, restructuring, and succession planning
  • Executive compensation and equity strategies
  • Regulatory audits and enforcement defense
Whether you're a plan sponsor, TPA, advisor, business owner, or executive, we’re here to help you make confident, informed decisions—backed by legal insight and experience.

Who we serve

Our clients range from startups to established companies, from growing ESOPs to family-owned businesses planning for the next generation. What they have in common: the need for legal counsel that’s clear, responsive, and forward-thinking.
Whether you’re building something new, fixing what broke, or preparing for what’s next, we’re ready to help you move forward with confidence.

Why it matters

Compliance isn’t just a checkbox.
Transitions aren’t just transactions.
Simplification isn't just plain language.
Every legal step you take affects people, most importantly your team, your partners, your future. That’s why we go beyond boilerplate. We listen closely, think creatively, and deliver legal work that reflects your values and vision.
