Expert Guidance Through a Complex ERISA Compliance Issue

Our company faced a daunting Department of Labor inquiry regarding our 401(k) plan's administrative practices. The situation was complex and the potential penalties were significant. We were referred to Amelia Trefz at Taft, and it was the best decision we could have made. From our first meeting in her Indianapolis office, Amelia demonstrated a command of ERISA law that was immediately reassuring. She meticulously dissected our plan documents and historical procedures, identifying both our vulnerabilities and our strongest defenses. Her Vanderbilt-honed analytical skills were evident as she crafted a strategic response that was both thorough and pragmatic. Amelia guided us through every step with clear communication, translating legalese into actionable business advice. The result was a favorable resolution with the DOL that minimized disruption and financial impact. Her recognition in Best Lawyers for Employee Benefits law is clearly well-deserved. For any business navigating the labyrinth of employee benefits compliance, I cannot recommend Amelia Trefz highly enough.
