Client/Legal Alert
This client alert discusses the Supreme Court's recent decision in Hardt v. Reliance Standard Life Insurance Company, holding that an ERISA claimant did not need to establish that she was a "prevailing party" to obtain attorney's fees. According to the Court, under ERISA Section 502(g)(1) - the fee-shifting provision that applies in most ERISA actions - a district court may award attorney's fees and costs to either party so long as the party can show "some degree of success on the merits."
