ERISA DEPARTMENT OF LABOR INVESTIGATIONS AND LITIGATION
Theresa S . Gee , Dawn E . Murphy-Johnson , Joanne Roskey , and Anthony F . Shelley ( Miller & Chevalier )
This deskbook walks readers through litigation issues and strategies arising from the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ( ERISA ) — particularly those surrounding pension plans , which is the focus of much of the DOL ’ s enforcement work . The author has advised clients on diverse ERISA matters and offers practice-ready advice for employers , plan administrators , and the attorneys that advise them .
This title serves as both a comprehensive reference of key DOL regulations and guidance and a go-to resource for the Department ’ s ever-evolving views on ERISA fiduciary responsibilities . Throughout its chapters , the book highlights cases the DOL has initiated as either a plaintiff or amicus — ranging from lower court matters to Supreme Court cases — and how subsequent court holdings and responses have impacted an employer ’ s fiduciary rights and liabilities . Also included are curated executive orders , strategic enforcement plans , and DOL investigation and enforcement documents .
Combat emerging DOL enforcement practices through PLI ’ s Upkeep Service .
