Hall Benefits Law Welcomes Partner Jean Yu, Establishes Los Angeles Office

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Los Angeles, CA (June 18, 2025) Hall Benefits Law, a recognized leader in employee benefits and ERISA legal services, has opened a Los Angeles office, marking a significant milestone in the firm's continued growth. Leading this expansion is Jean Yu, a seasoned attorney who brings more than two decades of employee benefits, ERISA compliance, and executive compensation experience to the firm.

"We're thrilled to have Jean join our team," said Anne Tyler Hall, Founder and Managing Partner of Hall Benefits Law. "Her deep expertise and collaborative approach make her the perfect fit to spearhead our California presence. This move isn't just about geography-it's about meeting the growing demand for trusted legal counsel on the West Coast."

Jean Yu is a problem solver. Her approach combines technical precision with strategic thinking, helping employer plan sponsors design benefit programs that work to recruit, retain, and recover employees. Yu focuses on aligning business objectives with regulatory compliance while minimizing legal exposure-a balancing act that requires skill and experience.

Yu's expertise spans the full spectrum of benefits law: plan design and fiduciary oversight, IRS and DOL audit response, executive compensation structuring, and multiemployer plan compliance. She also tackles union-related pension issues and collective bargaining matters. Beyond ERISA work, Jean provides counsel to both public and private companies on employment agreements and equity arrangements. Yu's client roster includes Fortune 100 companies and corporate leaders who value her ability to navigate complex technical requirements while understanding real-world business pressures.

"Joining HBL feels right," Jean explained. "The firm has built a reputation for excellence and responsiveness that matches my own values. I'm excited about growing our West Coast presence and connecting with employers throughout the region who require a trusted partner in the benefits space."

Client demand drove the West Coast expansion. As the regulatory landscape around employee benefits and compensation continues to shift, businesses increasingly need experienced counsel who understand both federal standards and regional business dynamics.

"Our growing number of West Coast clients made this move inevitable," Hall noted. "Physical presence matters. It's about being accessible and proactive-helping clients manage risk and stay compliant before problems arise."

The Los Angeles office offers Hall Benefits Law's complete suite of services. This includes ERISA compliance and fiduciary counseling for retirement and group health plans, executive compensation and deferred compensation plan design and implementation, collective bargaining support, and DOL and IRS benefit plan audit response. The office strengthens HBL's national footprint and advances the firm's mission to deliver exceptional legal solutions across the employee benefits lifecycle.
