ERISA & Employee Benefits

You earned those benefits. We know how to go get them.

ERISA — the federal law governing pensions, 401(k) plans, and most employment benefits — is one of the most technical areas of law there is. For nearly twelve years, our founder enforced it for the U.S. Department of Labor: investigating fiduciary breaches, prohibited transactions, and employee contributions that never made it into the plan.

We help when your pension or 401(k) payout is wrong, delayed, or denied; when employer contributions were withheld or misapplied; when a plan won’t respond to your claims or requests for documents; and when benefits are tangled in a divorce, a plan termination, or an employer’s bankruptcy.

Deadlines and administrative steps in ERISA cases are strict and unforgiving — if a denial letter is sitting on your counter, the clock is already running.
