FIDUCIARY LIABILITY LITIGATION

Trustees and other fiduciaries perform a vital function on many levels in our society, supervising pension funds, medical insurance programs, and numerous other undertakings. In this capacity, they are routinely confronted with enormously complex responsibilities and an arduous standard of performance imposed by both common law and statutes such as the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Not surprisingly, fiduciaries may be subject to suit for numerous adverse contingencies including investment losses, inadequate claims administration and even unpaid debts. We have extensive experience in defending fiduciaries and, with our related expertise in the financial and insurance sectors, our lawyers are exceptionally well-qualified and effective in this area.
