Employee Benefits Attorney in Seattle, Washington

An Overview of My ERISA Compliance Practice

At the Law Office of James D. Oswald, I represent individuals across the state who have been denied an employee benefit, including retirement, health and life insurance claims. I have over 25 years of experience protecting the rights of men and women across the state of Washington. Contact my offices to arrange a consultation.

ERISA Compliance and Employee Benefits

I have a thorough knowledge of ERISA (the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974), the federal statute that governs most employee benefits. I handle a wide range of disputes involving benefits available under employer-sponsored plans, including disability insurance benefits, retirement and pension benefits, life insurance and medical claims. See my ERISA and employee benefits page for more information. 

Disability Insurance Claims

If you have been wrongfully denied disability insurance benefits under an employer-sponsored plan, I will assist you in following all procedures to rightfully recover compensation. Regardless of the cause of your injury, or whether you have a short term or long term disability, I will gather the evidence and prepare the legal arguments to help you reverse the denial of your claim. For more information, see my disability insurance page.

Pensions and Retirement Plans

I work with individuals who have claims involving pension and retirement plans, whether those claims are for non-payment of benefits, failure by an employer to contribute to an employee retirement plan, or for improper investment of plan assets. To learn more, see my pension and retirement plans page.

Life Insurance and Medical Benefits

I represent individuals and survivors who have been wrongfully denied medical insurance or life insurance proceeds due under an employer-sponsored benefits plan. See my life and medical insurance page for more information.

Because I am a sole practitioner, you can be confident that you will receive personal attention, and the benefit of my experience and knowledge. Contact me for a consultation. My offices are open from 9 am until 5 pm, Monday through Friday. If you are unable to travel to my offices, I can arrange to visit you at a location of your convenience.
