We are delighted to welcome Camille Castro to our firm. The extensive experience that she brings with her from the PBGC will be of tremendous value to our firm in general, and specifically to our robust PBGC practice.

With over a decade of experience in pension and employee benefits law, Camille brings a wealth of experience in matters related to ERISA and pension plans. Her career at PBGC has provided Camille with a unique understanding of federal pension insurance programs and the intricacies of government regulations that impact plan sponsors, fiduciaries, and participants.

In her role at the PBGC’s Office of the Advocate, Camille served as a liaison between participants, plan sponsors and the PBGC. She assisted plan sponsors in resolving disputes with the agency involving distress terminations, post-termination negotiations, PBGC premiums, standard terminations, and other issues arising under Title IV of ERISA. She also advised participants with benefit entitlement claims, questions about PBGC’s policies and procedures, and other complex benefits administration questions. Camille created the PBGC Office of the Advocate’s Pension Plan Tracing Service, designed to assist participants with historical pension plan research and related benefit claims. She also served as technical point of contact for a study commissioned by the Advocate on pension plan de-risking.

Camille is a frequent presenter at employee benefits conferences, including the American Academy of Actuaries Annual Meeting, the Pension Counseling & Information Program National Conference, as well as the International Pension & Employee Benefits Lawyers Association (IPEBLA) Biennial Conference where she also served in 2024 as Vice-Chair of the Conference Organizing Committee. Camille earned an LL.M in Taxation with a Certificate in Employee Benefits Law from Georgetown University Law Center, a J.D. from Syracuse University School of Law, and a B.A. from Boston College. She is admitted to practice law in the District of Columbia and New York.
