QDRO and Retirement Valuations
In many marriages, retirement entitlements constitute a significant portion of the marital estate. Our litigation support team, with a combined fifty years of experience, assists litigants, attorneys, and other professionals with the evaluation of the marital interests in these entitlements.
Often, a retirement plan must be divided pursuant to a court order. Whenever possible, our team consults with each retirement plan to draft an order that fulfills the terms of the parties’ agreement while complying with the plan’s terms and specific requirements.
Capaldi, Reynolds, and Pelosi has worked with New Jersey courts, counsel, mediators, and litigants to help formulate and implement workable agreements for the division of retirement benefits. Our goal is to ensure all parties fully understand the implications of this process, which has significant ramifications for them. We value the confidence the legal community places in our work and are proud to be a trusted resource.
