Summary
Jamie Fleckner will be speaking at the Pensions & Investments 2026 Defined Contribution East Coast Conference on the session “Dodging DC Legal Landmines.” This session will look at how plan sponsors can lower legal risk in a time where ERISA lawsuits continue, including discussions of Cunningham v. Cornell, benchmark challenges, forfeiture disputes, ESG claims, stable value lawsuits and more. They will focus on the patterns driving today’s cases and the practical steps that help keep plans out of court: cleaner documentation, stronger oversight, and smarter operational controls.
