National Litigation Attorney ERISA

Are you a participant in an employee benefits plan that is sponsored by your employer? If so, there is a good chance that this plan is regulated by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, or as it is more commonly referred to, ERISA. This federal law governs many employee benefits plans, including pensions, other retirement plans, health and welfare plans and life insurance plans.

In the event that you qualify for benefits under your ERISA plan, you should receive those benefits without any undue delay. Unfortunately, in reality, doing so is not always so simple. All too frequently, the big insurance companies deny wholly valid benefits claims. At Roberts Disability Law, P.C., our experienced national ERISA litigation attorneys have extensive experience helping people across the U.S. fight for their benefits.  

ERISA Litigation: Cases We Handle

Claimants may need to file a lawsuit related to their ERISA benefits plan for many different reasons. Regardless of the context of your grievance, we can help. Our ERISA litigation attorneys have prior experience bringing legal action in a variety of different cases, including:

• Short term disability denials;
• Long term disability denials;
• Life insurance disputes;
• Health insurance coverage;
• Retirement plans;
• Pension plan claims;
• Executive deferred compensation (SERP); and
• Plan administrator misconduct, such as breach of fiduciary duty.

Fighting for a Full and Fair Settlement Offer

Ultimately, ERISA beneficiaries deserve their full compensation as soon as possible. No one wants to go all the way through a long, drawn out legal process. After your ERISA lawsuit has been filed, ideally, you will be able to reach a fair settlement with the insurance company. Our national ERISA litigation attorneys always look out for the best interests of our clients. We want to get their claim resolved so that they can move on with their lives.

Our attorneys have the skills and experience required to pursue a settlement agreement both informally and through common methods of alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation. That being said, we will never let your legal rights or financial interests take a back seat. If the insurance company is simply unwilling to make you a fair settlement offer, or to engage in good faith discussions, we are ready to fight aggressively on your behalf, taking your claim all of the way through the legal process and using every legal tool at our disposal.
