Overview
Employers seeking to completely (or even partially) exit underfunded union retirement trust programs can face massive financial exposure in the form of withdrawal liability. Similar challenges may arise when multi-employer funds audit contributions made to various benefit trusts. Our experienced attorneys have counseled scores of employers through the process of withdrawal, while navigating others through audit demands to ensure contributions are only made on behalf of those in the bargaining unit, while mitigating against the risks of liquidated damages, interest, and attorney fees.
