Handling Complicated Asset Division
Pensions and retirement funds should never be overlooked by people going through a divorce. These assets must be valued and divided. But they are unique and must be treated differently from a house, a car or other pieces of property because of their tax implications.
At the law firm of Joseph Indelicato, Jr., P.C., we know how to handle the division of these unique assets during divorce. We know how to deal with the fact that these assets aren't actually accessible now. We know how to address the tax implications involved. We know how to pursue results that make sense for you.
Inside or Outside of the Courtroom?
Whether or not it involves pensions and retirement funds, divorce can be handled in two ways: The two parties can strive to reach a divorce settlement or they can take the battle to court.
Our attorneys are skilled in both methods. We can work with you to design a fair settlement that meets your needs. We can also go into the courtroom, where we will take into account the unique nuances and habits of the judge, in order to fight for the outcome that you want.
We Handle All Aspects of Pension and Retirement Fund Division
Division of pensions and retirement funds requires the creation of a qualified domestic relations order, also referred to as a QDRO.
Our law firm is in an unusually strong position because, in addition to having a board-certified family law attorney, we also have a board-certified estate planning and probate lawyer on staff who previously practiced employment benefits law almost exclusively for a number of years. This means that we truly understand pensions and retirement funds. We know about the implications their division can have on your future.
Not only can we put together QDROs, other lawyers frequently come to us to do theirs. QDROs are a crucial element for the property division in divorce cases. We don't have to farm it out. We do it right here.
