Denver ERISA Lawyer

Colorado Long-term Disability Attorney

 

ERISA is a federal law. It does not require that companies have a retirement plan, but does require minimum standards and a certain level of fairness if they do. Transparency is also required. Funding levels and other basics must be communicated to participants.

Disability – Short Term and Long Term

ERISA also governs disability insurance to some extent. As federal law, it pre-empts the law of any state. Disputes about employer-provided insurance benefits are often governed by ERISA. If your employer provides disability benefits, ERISA affects the procedures for your application and receipt of benefits.
