Employee Benefit Plans are an important aspect of any company. Quality retirement and health and welfare plans provide valuable benefits that will help to attract and retain employees. Trout, Ebersole & Groff, LLP offers the experience and expertise to assist in developing benefit plans and to perform ongoing services to help ensure plans are in compliance with ERISA and the rules and regulations imposed by the Department of Labor.

Retirement Plans

• Defined Benefit Pension Plans
• 401(k) Plans
• Profit-Sharing Plans
• Employee Stock Ownership Plans
• Simple IRA Plans
• SEP Plans

Most employer sponsored pension plans require a Form 5500 to be filed, and may require an audit to be performed by an independent certified public accountant. We specialize in the performance of these audits and in the preparation of the Form 5500.

Health and Welfare Plans

• Fully insured
• Self insured
• Section 125 (Flexible Benefits)

Trout, Ebersole & Groff, LLP has conducted numerous health and welfare audits. We are considered to be specialists in this area. A section 125 plan or flexible benefit plan is a benefit that can help to attract and maintain employees by providing employees with benefit coverage on a pre-tax basis. Our firm can provide recommendations on the plan that best suits your circumstances.

Our expertise in the area of employee benefits will be an invaluable asset to you and your company when you are designing your company’s plan.
