  Stephen Rosenberg, an attorney with The McCormack Firm in Boston, wrote that he and others have always believed that if companies were more open about how they retain outside counsel, they would receive better, and less expensive, legal services. "The question now," Rosenberg says, "is whether those of us who have always believed companies should do that are willing to walk the walk and compete."

  Stephen D. Rosenberg, an employee-benefits lawyer with The McCormack Firm in Boston and author of the "Boston ERISA and Insurance Litigation" blog, said the case is fascinating on a number of levels.
  
  As Rosenberg explained, rarely in the ERISA field does fiduciary-duty litigation ever get to the merits.
  
  "It's always been a motion-to-dismiss or summary-judgment practice based on the idea that, ,Hey, you've cashed out, so you have no standing,'" he said."This protected plans, plan administrators and their vendors from any real sort of searching inquiry into the substance of what went on."
  
  But Evans signals that "the old world is going by the boards and being replaced by one where procedural defenses are being thrown aside," he said.
  
  Despite the fact that Rosenberg represents plans and plan administrators, he believes this is a good thing.
  
  "When everyone had traditional pensions, it didn't really matter if a company screwed up its investment strategy, because unless the company went out of business, the employees would still get their pensions," he said.
  
  But in the current landscape — where traditional defined-benefit pension plans have almost completely given way to defined-contribution plans — it is critical that there be an avenue for fiduciary obligations to be addressed more substantively, Rosenberg explained.
  
  "We need to give employees recourse for mistakes that would have made no difference in the pension world and to incentivize plan administrators to do the best job possible, even if it's out of fear that they'll be second-guessed in this type of litigation," he said.

  According to attorney Stephen D. Rosenberg, author of the Boston ERISA & Insurance Litigation Blog, "Given the number of different advisors and other players involved in the operations of these types of retirement vehicles, there are bound to be plenty of fiduciaries - as that term is understood in the context of ERISA - involved in almost any 401(k) plan, making for plenty of targets for such suits."
