Alan Pauw's practice covers some territory, including healthcare, employee benefit matters, Wills and Trusts, as well as general business and corporate matters. He is essentially a business and tax lawyer, and he represents small family corporations involved in sale transactions and many physicians whom he assists with contractual issues related to buy-ins and healthcare compliance and general employment matters.

A significant part of Alan's practice involves representation of public pension plans and ERISA retirement plans, including Tax Code compliance, fiduciary liability issues and non-qualified deferred compensation. He is responsible for McBrayer's prototype plan document, which is an IRS pre-approved retirement plan document that many of the firm's employer clients use.  Tax and corporate law involve analytic issues and personal relationships; these elements are what attracted Alan to practice in these areas of the law.

Estate planning and probate matters bring Alan's practice in front of families that need to make important decisions, and as such, he enjoys making a positive difference in their lives as they address family, legal and tax matters.

Alan's goal for clients first and foremost is to solve their problems, and in that process to explain in straightforward language what the legal issues are. Alan recognizes that no lawyer knows all the facts of any surrounding circumstance, so he considers it paramount that a lawyer ask questions which elicit facts that the client may not at first divulge. He believes that a good result is only obtained when the client brings all of the relevant facts and works together with the lawyer to come to a satisfactory resolution, settlement, negotiation, transaction agreement or whatever the task may be.
