Protection of Your Rights Under ERISA Laws

In addition to pension and retirement benefits, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974 also protects health and disability benefits. ERISA was enacted to set federal minimum standards for voluntarily established pension plans within the private sector, and hold employers to strict rules intended to protect employees' rights to promised benefits. Participants have the right to sue to obtain promised health and disability benefits and breaches of fiduciary duty.

A company that breaks its agreement to provide you health or disability insurance benefits as an employee or retiree not only violates your rights, it creates fear and uncertainty for the future. Without coverage, a serious illness or catastrophic injury can bring financial ruin. You may have rights to benefits insurance coverage promised by your employer. Our attorneys stand ready to explain and help you obtain these rights.

Settling or Litigating Your ERISA Claim

The first step in enforcing your rights is generally filing an administrative claim with your employer or insurance carrier. This process is often complex and technical. This is where we can help. At Martin & Bonnett PLLC, we provide diligent representation throughout the entire administrative claim process and beyond, if necessary. We have successfully challenged employers who cut back on benefits for their active or retired employees. We strive to resolve the matter, but we will litigate on your behalf if your health and disability benefits are wrongfully terminated or denied.
