Nothing less than a person’s financial future is at stake for individuals who participate in pension funds and employer-funded benefit plans where mismanagement, self-dealing, and other plan abuses result in losses to the plan.
 
Our team is comprised of lawyers knowledgeable about the notoriously complex requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). While ERISA provides extensive protection to pension funds and employer-funded benefit plans, the Act also imposes high fiduciary standards on the plan trustees who oversee participant investments.

The class action team at Labaton Sucharow understands what’s at stake. ERISA plan participants often spend years with an employer, working hard toward retirement. We are mindful that our work to recover lost pension assets can make a major difference to the financial health of many employees and their families.

We are proud to represent plan participants who agree to act as class action representatives in litigation to recover losses. Where these situations exist, the Labaton Sucharow team formulates a particularized litigation strategy to secure the best possible outcomes.
