Our law firm, along with co-counsel, won a $1m+ award against Morgan Stanley on behalf of a pair of former Morgan Stanley advisors, for the deferred compensation they were forced to forfeit when they left the firm. This is the second win for the trial team. We argued that Morgan Stanley's deferred compensation plan violated ERISA.

The Panel of arbitrators unanimously granted 100% of the advisors' deferred compensation, plus interest, attorney's fees, and case costs.

We are pursuing similar cases on behalf of 150+ former Morgan Stanley advisors.

The award is available below.
