Summary Plan Descriptions And Summaries Of Material Modifications

Our firm provides summary plan descriptions (SPDs) for health and welfare insurance plans, as well as pension plans. We also vet, monitor and assist in requests for proposal (RFPs) for pension plans and health and welfare insurance plans.

When there are changes in statute or law — for example, the Affordable Care Act or the Pension Protection Act — our firm provides summaries of material modifications (SMMs) to ensure compliance.

We have extensive experience in plan drafting, as well as in the negotiation, drafting, administration and enforcement of third-party service provider agreements. We offer a broad range of services related to employee welfare and retirement benefits plans, including advice on plan structure, self- and third-party administration, and mergers and acquisitions.

Pitta LLP provides arbitration counsel regarding employee benefits plans and ERISA. Our representative cases provide some insight into the scope of our work in these matters.
