Curtin Whitcombe LLC works with attorneys and directly with divorced individuals to prepare Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDROs) and other court orders required to divide retirement benefits. Retirement division is often complex and time-consuming to complete, and the process of getting them approved and finalized can be frustrating. Not only are there different Federal and State laws governing the content of these orders, but each individual retirement plan also has their own rules and procedures for dividing their plans. This is why most divorce attorneys don't do QDROs, but instead refer their clients to us. Curtin Whitcombe LLC is experienced in the division of a myriad of retirement plans and has streamlined the process to offer superior, knowledgeable services to make the process more manageable and less confusing. The attorneys at Curtin Whitcombe LLC concentrate in personalized and cost-effective QDRO support for attorneys and parties.
