8/2/17 - FocusOn Benefits Litigation Update Call


Wednesday, August 2, 2017 (2pm - 3:30pm US/Eastern)


This is a member-only call.

With a new Administration and executive branch, we are already seeing changes to the judiciary, with numerous new judges nominated and confirmed, and a new Justice on the Supreme Court already participating in and writing decisions. Plan sponsors must be vigilant of change, and prepare for the future by minimizing litigation exposure, while also maximizing strategy and tactics.

Stay up-to-date by joining ERIC’s FocusOn Benefits Litigation Update. Experts from ERIC and ERIC member company Epstein Becker & Green will discuss the following topics:
- The Importance and Difficulty of Controlling Venue in ERISA Litigation;
- Northrop Grumman Settles Decade Long Fee Litigation with 401k Plan Participants;
- Hannan v. Hartford: Support for Plan Service Providers and Sponsors in Setting Plan Costs; and
- Rhea v. Allen Ritchey, Inc. Welfare Benefit Plan: Is an SPD Enough to Enforce Subrogation After a Medical Liability Settlement?
