We have extensive pension-related experience for our municipal clients. We provide general counsel service to pension boards, including preparing rules and procedures for all of their proceedings.
We also represent pension boards at all levels of state court in defense of their disability and other related determinations. We appear before pension boards on behalf of our municipal clients in relation to duty disability requests that could trigger municipal liability under the Public Safety Employees Benefits Act (PSEBA). We have successfully intervened in numerous pension board proceedings. We have prepared specific PSEBA policies for our clients to govern the application and processing of PSEBA applications and administrative determinations. We have litigated numerous PSEBA matters at all levels of state court, and we have successfully obtained appellate court rulings confirming important limitations on PSEBA liability and concrete statute of limitations for PSEBA liability claims.
