“What stands out about Robin is how much she cares about the people she represents and how dedicated she has been throughout her career and education to helping people,” said Jonathan R. Marshall, Practice Area Leader of the firm’s entire Contingency Practice Area and leader of its Consumer Litigation Practice Group. “We look forward to seeing the difference she will make to the clients our firm represents.”

Supreme Court Argument on Bailey Glasser ERISA Case Being Held October 6, 2026

Continue reading

On October 6, the Supreme Court of the United States will be hearing our case Anderson v. Intel Corporation Investment Policy Committee et al., an important case involving how claims that fiduciary standards were breached in the selection of retirement plan investments must be pleaded.

This is the second time this case has reached the Supreme Court. In 2020, a unanimous court held that defendants must prove the plaintiff had actual, not constructive, knowledge of his claims for the three-year statute of limitations to apply. Intel Corp. Inv. Pol. Comm. v. Sulyma, 589 U.S. 178 (2020). The case is especially timely given the recent regulatory and legislative push to allow private equity, crypto and other exotic investments into 401(k) and traditional pension plans.

In January 2026, the Supreme Court of the United States granted the petition for certiorari filed by Bailey & Glasser, LLP and co-counsel on behalf of clients Winston Anderson and Christopher Sulyma in their ongoing case against the Intel Corporation and the plan fiduciaries responsible for investing Intel’s retirement plans. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants mismanaged retirement plan assets by stuffing target date funds and a “balanced fund” in the Intel plans with expensive, opaque, and esoteric private equity and hedge fund investments. These outlier investments caused Intel employees to lose hundreds of millions of dollars in retirement savings.

Gregory Porter, BG’s ERISA Practice Group Leader and leading co-counsel in this case, said, “This case presents a critical opportunity to clarify how courts evaluate fiduciary decision-making in complex retirement-plan investments, particularly as plans increasingly incorporate alternative and nontraditional assets.”

In addition to Greg Porter, the petition was filed by Bailey Glasser’s nationally recognized ERISA litigation team, which includes partners Mark Boyko and Ryan Jenny, as well as co-counsel from Gupta Wessler LLP and The Barton Firm LLP.

From courtrooms to restrooms, the Bailey Glasser Charleston office rolled up its sleeves for a day of service for the United Way of Central West Virginia by participating in its annual Day of Caring at the Shawnee Sports Complex. Bailey Glasser has been a longstanding supporter of United Way of Central West Virginia and its mission to strengthen the region by connecting people with essential resources and mobilizing volunteers.

Partner and Institutional Abuse and Neglect Team Leader Sharon Iskra pounded the pavement in concession and entrance areas with a power washer. Receptionist Janet Miller and Administrative Support Specialist Dawn Fujita spent the day refreshing the complex’s restrooms, while Of Counsel Victor “Weed Wacker” Woods spent the day sprucing up the grounds.

“Giving back is part of what it means to be connected to the communities we serve. Whether we are advocating in a courtroom or pitching in at a local sports complex, every act of service matters, and we are grateful for the opportunity to help,” said Sharon.

Thank you to United Way of Central West Virginia for organizing another meaningful Day of Caring and thank you to everyone who devoted their time and energy to strengthening the community.

We honor and mark the passing of Joseph “Joe” Rice, who was a fierce plaintiff’s lawyer, honorable colleague, and true friend. Over the course of his estimable career, he helped innumerable people grappling with the hardest challenges in their lives as they faced down illness and injury from tobacco, asbestos, and other defective products and poisonous chemicals. All of us here at Bailey Glasser were honored to know and fight alongside him, including Ben Bailey, Brian Glasser, David Selby, Katherine Charonko, Todd Mathews, and Samira Bode.

Our hearts go out to his family, and the wonderful photo in the image below comes from his daughter Ann, who herself became a fierce trial lawyer and carries on her father’s legacy at the firm he co-founded, Motley Rice LLC.
