Learn How Your QDRO Case Can Conclude Successfully

To make certain you receive the retirement benefits provided by the settlement or judgement in your divorce or separation case, additional orders must be filed in court and submitted to the given plan's administrators. You cannot receive your share of the benefits until this process is complete!

Find the legal backup you need

If your attorney hasn't filed the orders necessary to divide up retirement benefits, contact our legal team and get the assistance you need. Don't give up assets you've bargained for! It is also crucial to file in a timely fashion, as plans and companies can change so much that it can become extremely difficult to complete the orders.
