ERISA Specialists frequently encounter challenges in keeping up with constantly evolving federal regulations and ensuring that all employee benefit plans remain in full compliance. They must interpret complex legal language and communicate technical requirements to both HR professionals and plan participants. Additionally, managing multiple deadlines for regulatory filings and responding to audits or government inquiries can be demanding. Close collaboration with internal legal, finance, and HR teams is often required to resolve issues and implement best practices.
An ERISA job typically involves working with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), a federal law that governs retirement plans, health benefits, and other employee benefits. Professionals in ERISA roles, such as attorneys, consultants, or compliance specialists, help employers, plan administrators, and fiduciaries ensure compliance with ERISA regulations. They may review plan documents, assist with Department of Labor (DOL) audits, and provide guidance on fiduciary responsibilities. ERISA jobs are commonly found in law firms, financial institutions, government agencies, and benefits consulting firms.
To thrive as an ERISA Specialist, candidates typically need a solid understanding of employee benefits law, particularly the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), as well as experience in benefits administration or compliance. Familiarity with legal research databases, benefits management systems, and relevant industry certifications such as CEBS (Certified Employee Benefit Specialist) are highly valued. Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, effective written and verbal communication, and the ability to work collaboratively are essential. These qualifications ensure accurate interpretation and application of regulations, helping organizations maintain compliance and minimize risk.
We are looking for an ERISA Attorney to join a collaborative federal litigation practice in San Diego, with a national law firm.
This role offers meaningful responsibility from the outset, with the opportunity to work on a focused caseload involving both class actions and individual plaintiff matters. The position is well suited for an experienced ERISA lawyer who wants hands-on litigation work, direct access to firm leadership, and a path toward increased case ownership over time.
Responsibilities:
• Manage an initial docket of approximately three to four active matters involving ERISA-related disputes, including both class-based and single-plaintiff cases.
• Prepare a wide range of litigation documents, including complaints, written discovery, dispositive motions, and substantive legal briefs.
• Conduct and defend depositions while developing factual records that support case strategy and advocacy efforts.
• Represent clients in mediation proceedings and contribute to negotiation strategy aimed at resolving disputes effectively.
• Handle hearing appearances and present arguments before the court in connection with ongoing litigation matters.
• Support all phases of trial preparation, including witness coordination, exhibit review, case analysis, and pretrial filings.
Perks of Firm:
· Well know plaintiff employment firm with notable verdicts.
· A hands-on managing partner. Feedback is that he’s responsive, personable, welcomes questions, and is easy to work with.
· Low volume of cases.
· Opportunity to be managing attorney on cases (after ramp up period).
· Weekly Wednesday lunches as a firm.
· Multiple bar association events the firm hosts/attends.
· Summer party and year-end party.
· Quality benefits and unlimited PTO.
• At least 3 years of legal experience, with a strong background in ERISA-related litigation.
• Active license to practice law in CA.
• Demonstrated experience drafting motions, briefs, pleadings, and discovery materials in civil litigation matters.
• Working knowledge of employment law, federal law, and employee benefits matters under ERISA.
