Our Approach: Most employers receive ERISA services from their insurance broker. Typically, brokers offer some compliance resources (i.e., checklists and sample notices). ERISA attorneys are a great resource for most employers, except their fees can be substantial. ERISA attorney’s can charge between $300 to $550 an hour to perform the same type of work. EBCS offers a better option. We utilize a through analytical consulting approach that goes way beyond the typical broker checklist. In addition, this approach will save employer's a substantial amount of money by do most of the work of gathering, analyzing, and making recommendations for your ERISA compliance program, instead of paying an ERISA attorney to do that kind of work.
