Freeland is a census-designated place (CDP) in Island County, Washington, United States. The population was 1,313 at the 2000 census. The town received its name based on its origins as a commune in the early 1900s—literally, in the eyes of its socialist founders, the land of the town was to be free for all people. (Some of the first settlers were veterans of a prior experiment in socialism, the nearby Equality Colony.)

What is employee benefits and ERISA law?

ERISA requires plans to provide participants with plan information including important information about plan features and funding; provides fiduciary responsibilities for those who manage and control plan assets; requires plans to establish a grievance and appeals process for participants to get benefits from their plans; and gives participants the right to sue for benefits and breaches of fiduciary duty. Attorneys may represent employees or they may represent the company in the design, preparation, and review of plan, trust, and employee communication documents to implement pension, profit sharing, employee stock ownership, fringe benefit, flexible benefit, and all types of employee welfare plans.
