QDROs and Divorce: Dividing Retirement Assets the Right Way

Dividing retirement accounts during a divorce requires special legal tools. A Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or QDRO, is used to split retirement savings without penalties or tax consequences. These documents must be drafted carefully to meet both federal and state requirements.

At Inspire Law, we understand the importance of protecting retirement savings. We prepare QDROs that ensure assets are divided fairly while protecting long term financial stability. This process is technical, but it is also one of the most important steps in a divorce that involves retirement accounts.

Careful planning protects retirement savings and ensures a fair future for both parties.
