“ERISA is a law that was passed to give people protections,” says ERISA litigation attorney Michael Bartolic. “It was designed to protect employees from not getting their benefits they’ve been promised. The unrepresented or unsavvy claimant doesn’t often know how to use the law to their benefit,” he explained.  According to Bartolic, this is especially true in light of the many court decisions that have sided with employers over ERISA litigation.

“When you have experienced ERISA lawyers on your side who focus on these laws you have a much better chance of settling a claim to your benefit,” Bartolic said.

Bartolic also helps clients with appeals of denied social security benefits. He also handles executive compensation, including advice and negotiation and clawback and forfeiture defense. For more information visit: http://www.michaelbartolic.com/.
