If you receive health, life insurance, or disability benefits through your employer, you know that navigating coverage questions can be complicated. Maybe we can help make them un-complicated.

Ensuring your employer or benefit plan lives up to their legal requirements can lead to peace of mind for you and your family when you need it most. Fair Work attorneys have extensive experience litigating cases under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and related laws.

In addition to covering retirement claims, ERISA safeguards workers’ rights under plans that cover medical care, dental, vision, short- or long-term disability payments, severance pay, and other non-retirement benefits.

These benefits are part of your compensation, and the law protects your right to them.

In fact, ERISA goes a step further and imposes strict standards on fiduciaries (persons responsible for administering plans). Fiduciaries must prudently and loyally manage their plans and must also comply with requirements under laws like COBRA (a part of ERISA that allows you to continue your insurance after leaving an employer and that imposes technical requirements on how the plan must tell you about your rights) or HIPAA (yet another part of ERISA that protects the confidentiality of your health information). Check out our Insights for more information on your rights under ERISA

Fair Work’s lawyers have extensive experience litigating ERISA cases. If you have questions about whether your plan is improperly paying hidden fees, wrongly refusing to cover services, not providing you accurate information, or otherwise failing to comply with ERISA, please contact us.
