Our talented employee benefits lawyers have decades of experience advising plan fiduciaries on their fiduciary duties, and on the avoidance of fiduciary status. We counsel fiduciaries on when the individuals are deemed as operating in a fiduciary versus settlor capacity pursuant to Department of Labor and other guidance, and the best practices for ensuring that fees for services are reasonable. We also provide guidance on prohibited transactions, including self-dealing and party-in-interest transactions, and on when statutory and class exemptions apply.
