Pension Division Lawyer Assisting With 401(k) Plans and Other Retirement Accounts

Dividing retirement accounts can be much more complex than dividing other assets. Certain parts of your plan may have been earned prior to being married, while others were accrued during your marriage. These and additional factors will play into how your retirement is split.

We have an extensive understanding of how to properly analyze and divide all types of retirement assets, including:

• 401(k) plans
• IRAs
• Pension plans
• Stocks, bonds and other investments

Asset Valuation Guidance

A proper asset valuation by an expert in the field is critical to the outcome of your property and retirement division case. If your spouse's assets are found to be very valuable, or your share of assets is found to be worth less than expected, you may be able to keep your entire retirement plan.

Financial experts may be retained to obtain accurate valuations of your property, saving you time and money while protecting long-term rights to your assets.
