Dividing Retirement and
Deferred Compensation

Retirement accounts are frequently among the largest assets in a high asset divorce, and dividing them is not as simple as splitting a balance. Many require a qualified domestic relations order to divide without triggering taxes or penalties, and the rules differ between account types.

Deferred compensation and pensions add further complexity, since their present value has to be calculated before they can be fairly divided. A high asset divorce attorney in Tampa makes sure these accounts are valued and split correctly, and Brodzki Jacobs coordinates the orders that put the division into effect.
