Employee Benefits
Sachs Waldman has had an Employee Benefits practice since the early 1950's and our attorneys have developed specialized expertise in many complex aspects of the federal employee benefits and tax laws which govern funds and plans.
Our Employee Benefits attorneys are chiefly involved in representing the legal interests of collectively bargained (Taft-Hartley) pension, profit sharing, annuity, health care, SUB, vacation and holiday, and apprenticeship funds, their trustees, participants and beneficiaries.
Among the professional services we provide are: drafting and/orreviewing and approving all plan documents and all contracts, agreements and similar legal documents; assisting the trustees, administrators and others to comply with applicable federal and state laws and regulations; representing the fund and trustees in legal proceedings and in dealings with the Department of Labor, the Internal Revenue Service, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation and other government regulatory agencies.
Our attorneys serve benefit funds and their trustees in a variety of ways, such as: providing written opinions; attending trustees meetings; assisting with claims issues; and consulting on a broad range of legal matters.
A significant portion of our practice involves the collection and recovery of delinquent employer contributions owed to the funds.
