Qualified Domestic Relations Orders for San Diego Divorces

Qualified Domestic Relations Orders, commonly known as QDROs, are legal orders that allocate a portion of retirement or pension benefits to an alternate payee, typically as part of a divorce settlement. This order allows for the division of retirement benefits between former spouses. At the San Diego Mediation, Divorce and Family Law office, led by Scott Levin, CDFA, our mediation experts routinely prepare QDROs for various retirement plans, including:

• 401(k) plans

• 403(b) plans

• CalPERS

• CalSTRS

• FERS

• TSP

During mediation, you can rely on our comprehensive QDRO preparation services. We will ensure your QDRO is properly processed by the retirement or pension plan administrator, which is often the most complex aspect of securing a QDRO.

Our services are available to those who engage us for full mediation throughout the entire divorce process, as well as those who need assistance solely with QDRO preparation. Even if you are working with attorneys or other mediators for your divorce, we can still assist you with the specialized task of preparing and processing your QDRO.
