(LegalLaw247.com, December 10, 2011 ) New York, NY The ERISA lawyers working with Class Action.org are available to review claims from retired union members who noticed a cut in their healthcare benefits. Potentially, these individuals may be able to seek compensation for expenses associated with this decrease in coverage. If you have noticed that your union retiree benefits have been reduced, often signaled by an increase in co-pays, deductibles or other healthcare costs, visit http://www.classaction.org/union-retiree-health-benefits.html today for a free, no obligation review of your claim.
Men and women who noticed a decrease in their union retiree health benefits often saw this change occur shortly after a contract negotiation. It has been alleged that certain union members have suffered a cut in healthcare coverage after a new agreement, on which they were not permitted to vote, was negotiated. Under the new contract, active employee benefits were kept the same, but union retiree benefits for healthcare were reduced, even though there was no increase in their pensions. Allegedly, in some of these instances, union members who were hesitant to sign the new agreements were offered signing bonuses.
The ERISA lawyers working with Class Action.org believe that unions and companies cannot create a new contract which cuts the union health benefits for those who retired under a previous agreement. If you have noticed an increase in monthly premiums, prescription drug costs, co-pays, deductibles or out-of-pocket maximums following union retirement, you may have legal recourse to seek compensation for these additional expenses with the help of an ERISA lawyer. For more information and to receive a free evaluation of your union retiree health benefits claim, visit Class Action.org today. The ERISA lawyers working with the site are offering this online consultation at no cost and remain committed to protecting the rights of retired union members.
