About Deborah
Biography
I am the chair of Willig, Williams & Davidson’s employee benefits department. I have more than 30 years of experience in tax and employee benefits law. I counsel and represent numerous public and private-sector single and multi-employer funds on a broad range of benefit and tax matters.
I specialize in representing trustees of single and multi-employer pension and health and welfare plans with respect to tax, ERISA and plan administration issues. I also advise clients regarding employment, pension and benefit matters.
I am also an adjunct professor at Temple University Beasley School of Law, teaching courses in the school’s graduate tax program. I am a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Taxation of Exempt Organizations.
