King & Spalding LLP is experienced in large-stakes ERISA class actions, with a track record in defending class actions involving investment choices, excessive fees and allegations of self-dealing in 401(k) and other retirement plans. One leading matter the firm handled included representing Archegos Capital Management, in which Atlanta-based David Tetrick successfully dismissed the claim raised against Archegos in a case brought by a former employee, alleging that the bonus plan is governed by ERISA and thus plan participants were owed millions in alleged plan losses. Also in Atlanta, Darren Shuler focuses on ERISA class action litigation and employee benefits disputes, while New York-based Dana Berkowitz, who joined the team from Stris & Maher LLP in July 2024, is experienced in ERISA-governed insurance reimbursement disputes and license revocation actions.
