US Law Firms

If you have little or no pensions resource, Pension Partners can seamlessly fill the gap.

We can provide pensions advice to your clients, either acting as a consultant to your firm and as part of your firm, or directly to the client under the Pension Partners banner.

US law firms who have appointed us as a consultant have found that our presence opens up more work opportunities and has enabled them to provide a broad range of services to their clients. Many have found that it helps to protect client relationships and avoids a situation of a client going elsewhere. They view the fact that they effectively outsource this aspect of their work as a strength and innovation.
