Summary: The addition of Theresa S. (Tess) Gee to Miller & Chevalier’s Employee Benefits practice will prove herself to be a valuable source of knowledge of ERISA matters for the firm.
Law firm Miller & Chevalier has brought on a new member to their Employee Benefits practice. Theresa S. (Tess) Gee is joining the firm with a vast amount of knowledge to help the firm navigate certain operations. She previously worked at O’Melveny & Myers LLP and the US Department of Labor.
Just some of Gee’s expertise includes litigating Employee Retirement Income Security Act matters and counseling on the fiduciary responsibilities for clients created by the ERISA. As the Deputy Associate Solicitor at the DOL’s Office of the Solicitor, she was primarily responsible for ERISA litigation and advice.
Chair of the firm’s Executive Committee, Anthony F. Shelley, said this of her skills, “Tess’s insight into the way the DOL operates, combined with the excellent counsel she provides clients, provides Miller & Chevalier with an invaluable skill set. Her addition will complement our already strong Employee Benefits and ERISA Litigation practices, and I’m pleased to welcome her to the firm.”
She currently serves as the Management Co-Chair for the American Bar Association’s Employee Benefits Committee. She regularly contributes to ERISA Fiduciary Law. She is also a Board member for the Gary S. Tell Scholarship Foundation, which gives stipends to law students each year that want to focus on ERISA litigation work with the government.
Gee earned her B.A. from the University of California at Berkeley and her J.D. from the University of California, Hastings College of the Law.
