ERISA Litigation
Counseling And Plan Drafting
Benefit plans: We help with the drafting, implementation and administration of a wide range of benefit plans, including multiemployer plans, cafeteria plans, and health and welfare benefit plans. Our experience includes drafting effective and legally sufficient summary plan descriptions.
Compliance with ERISA: Benefit plans, such as health insurance or retirement plans, are subject to the provisions and regulations outlined in ERISA. We can help ensure compliance to save you legal headaches down the road.
Liability for withdrawal: We regularly advise ERISA funds on aspects of withdrawal liability.
HIPAA requirements:
The requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) were added to ERISA in 1996. We can handle all matters involving HIPAA issues as they relate to employee benefit plans.
