SEATTLE, June 12, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Attorney Advertising. Keller Rohrback L.L.P. (www.erisafraud.com) announces that it has commenced an investigation against Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. ("Lehman Brothers" or the "Company") (NYSE:LEH) for potential violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). The investigation focuses on investments in Lehman Brothers stock by the Lehman Brothers Savings Plan (the "Plan").
Keller Rohrback's investigation involves concerns that Lehman Brothers and other administrators of the Plan may have breached their ERISA-mandated fiduciary duties of loyalty and prudence to participants and beneficiaries of the Plan. A breach may have occurred if the fiduciaries failed to manage the assets of the Plan prudently and loyally by investing the assets in Company stock when it was no longer a prudent investment for participants' retirement savings. Specifically, Lehman Brothers and the Plan's other fiduciaries continued to invest in and hold Lehman Brothers stock in the Plan despite the Company's apparent mismanagement of the risk of assets held by the Company and its gross failure to maintain adequate capital and liquidity.
If you are a participant in the Lehman Brothers Savings Plan or held Lehman Brothers stock in the Plan, you may contact paralegal Jennifer Tuato'o or attorneys Derek Loeser or Lynn Sarko toll free at 800-776-6044, or at investor@kellerrohrback.com.
