FMG attorneys Christian Gunneson, Jennifer Markowski and Joseph McGuire secured a complete dismissal in an arbitration on behalf of a third-party administrator of a self-funded ERISA plan. The claimant was the ERISA plan sponsor who alleged that FMG’s client mishandled employee health claims over a two-year period. The claimant initially sought damages in excess of $6 million. After securing two favorable motions to dismiss to limit the claims, the FMG team was able to successfully outline the poor evidentiary support of the claims. After FMG sought to file a motion for summary judgment, the claimant voluntarily dismissed all claims against FMG’s client.
