The Lowenbaum Partnership has a
nationally recognized employer side benefits practice
that is designed to assist our clients in achieving
their overall human resources and labor relations goals.
We believe that providing clients with effective and
cost-efficient employee benefits representation requires
the ability to understand how a client's employee
benefits objectives fit into the client's overall
employment and business goals, and the ability to
translate the technical requirements of employee
benefits law into practical, understandable, and
affordable means to achieve those goals. The fact that
our benefits lawyers are able to "demystify" the
technical and somewhat arcane aspects of many of the
benefits-related laws and explain them in plain language
that our clients can understand sets us apart from
others.
Employee Benefits Litigation
Capabilities
New and established clients often turn to members of The
Lowenbaum Partnership's employee benefits group for
assistance in litigation involving employee pension or
welfare benefits plans – sometimes brought on behalf of
a single individual, but often brought on behalf of a
class of plan participants – including claims under
ERISA alleging breaches of fiduciary duties or
violations of ERISA's substantive requirements. By
demand - not by choice! - we have alot of experience in
handling all aspects of MEPPA withdrawal liability
issues and matters and can help you work your way
through this difficult and often painful process.
The Lowenbaum Partnership's seasoned
litigators have a sound working knowledge of the complex
tax and regulatory issues involved in employee benefit
plan design and administration. We routinely draft plan
documents and related instruments for qualified and
nonqualified retirement plans, welfare plans, and fringe
benefit plans; advise clients regarding the employee
benefits aspects of corporate mergers, acquisitions, and
restructurings; or counsel clients regarding other
aspects of tax or regulatory compliance.
