About the Course

Introduction

This CLE webinar will provide ERISA and executive compensation attorneys with an in-depth analysis of key ethical challenges in employee benefits and compensation structuring, implementation, and administration, and provide practical tools for navigating these issues in their practice.

Description

ERISA, benefits, and executive compensation counsel face complex ethical issues in representing various companies, administrators, and fiduciaries. Factors such as the dual roles and interlocks that characterize the practice pose distinct ethical challenges for attorneys.

Key ethical concerns include conflicts of interest, especially when representing multiple parties, and communications with outside or in-house counsel, and fiduciaries. Other significant ethical issues include duties of loyalty and confidentiality and attorney-client privilege.

Counsel should appropriately balance efficiency in client representation with ethical requirements to ensure that their actions align with legal standards while protecting the interests of their clients.

Listen as our expert discusses the ethical considerations that frequently arise in ERISA, employee benefits, and executive compensation, and how attorneys can maintain professional integrity and compliance with ethical standards.
