Partner Todd Wozniak was interviewed for a Law360 article describing the types of benefits-related litigation employers can expect once the COVID-19 pandemic peters out. Mr. Wozniak, who leads Holland & Knight's ERISA, ESOP and Employee Benefits Litigation Team, commented on notices about healthcare coverage for furloughed workers, retirement plan investments, Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOP) and denied insurance claims.
