Qualified Domestic Relations Orders

The Atkins Law Firm, P.A. can assist you with the preparation of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) in South Carolina. 

If you have gone through a separation or divorce and are entitled to a portion of your former spouse’s 401(k) or other retirement account or you are required to divide your 401(k), 403(b), pension, or other retirement account, we can assist with the preparation of the qualified domestic relations Order.

A Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) is a court order that recognizes the existence of an alternate payee's right to receive a portion of a participant's benefits from a qualified retirement plan. The order must meet certain requirements in order for it to be considered a qualified order. The order must specify the amount or percentage of the participant's benefits to be paid to the alternate payee, identify the type and amount of benefits to be paid, and provide other necessary information as determined by the plan administrator.
