"My Mom retired from her job as a Registered Nurse at the local hospital after 33 years of service.  The hospital tried to void all but 10 years of her service for a grandfathered retirement plan, offering my Mom a mere third of the benefit that she was entitled to.  With Ilene's expertise, we were able to wage a successful battle with the hospital.  Not only did the hospital pay Mom her rightful retirement in full, but they paid interest on it for the two years it took to settle, and reimbursed my parents the legal and professional fees that they paid.  Almost all of Ilene's time was done pro bono because she felt that the hospital's actions were so egregious and my parents, now living on Social Security benefits alone, were not in the position to pay.  Ilene didn't have to do that, but it goes to show the type of person that she is.   On behalf of my parents and myself, we are eternally grateful!"

“Your team has been fabulous to work with. Thank you all for straightening me out!”

Thank you and thanks to your staff for a great presentation today.  We really appreciate the effort your team puts into the webinar each year. They are easy to work with on the set-up and provide a variety of knowledge to the case studies. The number of attendees for this webinar is attributable to your reputation (WP&BC Governing Board Ethics Webinar).

Regarding the 2017 Pensions on Peachtree Conference, I wanted to thank you for putting on a top notch event.  We thoroughly enjoyed not only the information/instruction, but also the social aspects of this event and look forward to attending for many years to come.

Thank you for all of your efforts on behalf of VTI. Not only are we pleased with the outcome, but you made this a much easier process by being so nice to work with.

I truly appreciated the way you listened to my concerns and addressed them in the documents.  As you know, some attorneys listen better than others, and I am so appreciative that you are a good listener.

Our organization has enjoyed the opportunity to partner with Ilene for three separate retirement education programs in the last four years.

Ilene always delivers the technical content that our audiences expect. When we partner with Ilene, we do so with complete confidence that our audience’s time will be richly rewarded, and we are very proud to have her as an education partner.
