Pensions disputes
Disputes relating to occupational pension schemes are often complex and of a highly technical nature. Resolving disputes before they reach the Pensions Ombudsman or the High Court is often a priority. Our team of dedicated pensions lawyers can provide you with practical advice on how to resolve any potential disputes that you might be facing at an early stage and, if it proves necessary, how to deal with Pensions Ombudsman and High Court cases.
In carrying out this work, we recognise that each case is unique and that the outcome may have significant future consequences for your scheme. Our pensions disputes specialists combine with our pensions lawyers to provide an expert and seamless service.
Some of the cases that our team have recently advised on include applications to the Pensions Ombudsman for rectification, applications for directions to the High Court, Beddoe applications, professional negligence claims and disputes on policy documents.
Our services include:
- Internal dispute resolution procedures
- Initial advice on the nature of potential claims
- Complaints to and appeals from the Pensions Ombudsman
- Dealings with the Pensions Regulator
- High Court proceedings
- Pensions-related professional negligence issues
- Other pensions-related disputes
- General pensions advice
