What Is ERISA?
The Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) is the federal law that regulates most private-sector employee benefit plans. There are minimum requirements for qualifying ERISA plans, including reporting, recordkeeping, and fiduciary compliance. Types of defined benefit and contribution plans that fall under ERISA can include:
- 401(k)s
- 403(b)s
- Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs)
- Simplified Employee Pension Plans (SEPs)
- Profit Sharing Plans
- Stock Bonus Plans
What Are Some Examples of Situations Where I Might Need an ERISA Lawyer?
You pay into your employer-sponsored retirement plan over the course of your employment. Your retirement plan represents your financial investment to provide for you in your older age. If your employer’s plan manager or provider is not meeting their obligations, it can put your financial future at risk. Situations where you might want to talk to an ERISA lawyer include:
- The plan provider is not fully funding the benefit plan
- The plan manager is buying funds with unreasonable fees and costs
- The plan provider is not actively managing benefit accounts
- The plan manager is breaching their fiduciary duty to plan participants
- You were dropped from coverage or denied benefits
How Can an ERISA Lawyer Help Me?
An ERISA lawyer can explain the minimum standards for your benefits plan and explain your legal options. If you believe your employer or plan provider is not meeting their legal obligations, your lawyer can file an ERISA lawsuit to enforce your legal rights. In an ERISA claim, a lawyer can help you recover damages for:
- Lost benefits
- Medical bills
- Lost wages
- Attorney fees
What Could Happen if I Don’t Hire an ERISA Lawyer?
If you don’t hire an ERISA lawyer, you will be left with whatever the employer or plan provider decides for your benefits. If you are denied benefits or dropped from coverage, you could lose out on benefits in retirement, including health benefits. If the plan provider breaches their fiduciary duties, it could put the pension plan at risk of insolvency. Without an ERISA lawyer, you could face a:
- Loss of pension payments
- Loss or retirement funds
- Loss of medical benefits
