The escalating pace of Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) cases filed against retirement plan providers and sponsors is expected to continue through 2019 and likely beyond. Current litigation trends are skewed towards the use of company stock, issues on fees, and allegations of disloyalty.
