Dividing Retirement Funds
Campbell Lawyers — Dividing Retirement Benefits in a Divorce
Santa Clara County 401(k) Asset Attorneys
At the Law Offices of Robert J. Tennant, we work hard to protect your assets in divorce. We understand how hard you have worked to contribute to your retirement fund, and your desire to live a financially comfortable life in retirement. Allow us to put our experience to use for you when dividing any retirement fund:
- 401(k) plans
- IRAs
- Pension plans
- Annuities
Dividing retirement funds in divorce can be extremely complex, depending on the type of retirement fund involved and other factors. In certain cases, working with an actuary may be necessary to analyze a defined benefits retirement plan and the benefit going forward. Other factors may complicate the division of a retirement fund. Our firm works with financial experts to analyze the multiple components associated with the division of assets in divorce.
When an individual has been married one or more times before, complex issues may arise involving qualified domestic relations orders (QDRO). Our firm will work to explain any former spouse's rights to retirement benefits.
