Qualified Domestic Relations Orders

Zachary, Louisiana QDRO Attorneys

A qualified domestic relations order is used to move retirement funds from one spouse's account to another's. Myles, Cook & Day has helped many clients to facilitate this sometimes complicated process.

The following types of accounts can be subject to division with a qualified domestic relations order:

  • 401(k)s
  • IRAs
  • Pensions
  • Stock options
  • Retirement plans
  • Profit sharing benefits
  • Other ERISA defined benefit and contribution plans
  • Government and military retirement plans

QDROs are an important and complex part of many divorce proceedings. Be sure that you get representation from a lawyer with experience in these matters. Contact Myles, Cook & Day to schedule an initial consultation. You can call us at 225.654.6006 or send us an e-mail.

Dependable Representation in QDRO Matters

The majority of qualified domestic relations orders take place during community property settlements. Others are sometimes used to settle child or spousal support obligations. These are very detailed documents that require the attention of an experienced attorney. QDROs that are not completed properly may not be approved, causing serious problems for the recipient down the line.

When you hire our firm, we will work with you to examine all of the accounts that require attention and identify the correct redistribution of assets based on the terms of the divorce agreement. We will complete the appropriate forms, submit them to the court for approval and then submit them to the plan administrators to complete the transfer.
