Sarah Zumwalt will participate in the “Southern Employee Benefits Conference Fall Fly-In: Healthcare, Investments and Retirement Plans Looking Ahead” on October 1 – 2, 2012 in Atlanta, GA. Her panel “Excessive 401(k) Fees Lawsuit: The Defendant’s Perspective” will assess where 401(k) fee litigation may be going in light of recent developments like the implementation of the fees disclosure rules.

The panel will also discuss the sole “win” achieved by the plaintiffs’ bar thus far, what its ramifications may be for other cases, and what steps plan sponsors and fiduciaries should consider to put themselves in the best position to prevent fees litigation and expeditiously defend it if it hits them.
