Retirement Assets in Divorce
In Texas, property acquired during your marriage is considered community property and can be divided in your divorce. This includes any retirement assets, funds or savings that were earned during your marriage.
At our firm, we take a detail-oriented approach to reviewing all of your community property and retirement assets. We will listen to your goals and help you develop a property division plan that accounts for all types of retirement plans and tools, including:
- Fixed, variable and joint annuities
- 401(k) plans and Roth 401(k)
- Individual retirement accounts (IRAs), including Roth IRAs and traditional IRAs
- Pensions through employment such as government and teacher's pensions
Some retirement plans require the use of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) to divide the funds at a future date. At our firm, we work with financial experts and other financial professionals to assess the value of your retirement assets in the future and draft QDROs when necessary.
Real Results Dividing Retirement Assets: Our attorneys have successfully represented clients and assisted in the fair division of retirement assets and in drafting QDROs for annuities, 401(k) plans and other retirement plans.
