ABOUT US
Free Pension Counseling Regardless of Age or Income
Our mission is to help individuals understand and exercise their pension rights. We provide services free of charge to workers and retirees or their family members who currently live or work in Arkansas, Louisiana, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas.
Our services are free of charge, regardless of age, income, or the amount of the benefit sought. Our attorneys and paralegals provide services over the telephone and through the mail.
Pension Plans and Laws are Complex
Navigating pensions without knowledgeable assistance is difficult at best — and nearly impossible for some.
WHY ARE PENSION COUNSELING PROJECTS NEEDED?
Corporate and Financial Turmoil
Corporate mergers, bankruptcies, and a volatile stock market mean that more people than ever are in need of basic pension help.
Lack of Accessible Resources
Few resources exist that provide assistance free of charge — regardless of age, income, or the value of the pension.
