:: What is ERISA?

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 is an American federal statute that governs the world of employee benfits & group insurance. ERISA was enacted to protect the interests of employee benefit plan participants and their beneficiaries by requiring the disclosure to them of financial and other information concerning the plan; by establishing standards of conduct for plan fiduciaries; and by providing for appropriate remedies and access to the federal courts.

What We Stand For

Cypress was founded in 1999 by an ERISA-practicing attorney. After working for one of the largest global law firms and seeing the impersonal relationships created in big business, Cypress was formed with a simple idea ~ to eliminate the notion of big company and little client.

Clients may choose to do business with you based on the size of your company, but even the largest marketing budget or endless sources of infrastructure will not keep them. At Cypress, our history of client retention allows us to proudly boast that we have the most loyal clients an organization could ask for.

We attribute our client retention to our committment of promoting honor and excellence in the insurance industry. Much like the clients we represent, we obtain this excellence through our professional conduct and iron-clad integrity that guides the direction of our decisions in every business situation. No matter what.
