If You Think 'It's Not Worth the Paper It's Printed On' -- Think Again
Seyfarth Shaw LLP 
Oct. 7, 2013 "Estoppel claims and other attempts to get equitable remedies are rampant in the wake of the Supreme Court's Amara decision ... These claims frequently depend on oral communications with benefit plan staff or allegedly vague or misleading documents.... [T]he best defense to an ERISA estoppel claim often lies in clear plan documents and communications. Well drafted documents, distributed to participants at the right time, can undercut claims of reasonable reliance upon other inaccurate statements about benefits." |
