Avoid Mistakes When Dividing Retirement Assets
The number of couples divorcing after the age of 50 has increased to the point that it now has a name: gray divorce. When you are closer to retirement, it becomes more difficult to make up any shortfall in retirement assets. It is vitally important for you to assert your rights to your share of retirement funds during the property division phase of your divorce. Division of retirement funds may also apply to younger couples who are divorcing. You may be in your 20s, 30s or 40s, and if you or your spouse has accumulated retirement funds, you need to understand your right to your fair share. If applicable, lay your claim now so you will not reach retirement age without access to those funds that accumulated during your marriage.
At the Law Offices of David M. Lederman, we understand these issues. Call 925-522-8889 or email us to start the conversation. We can help create a strategy to protect your financial future.

Special Considerations
If one spouse has sacrificed a career to allow the other spouse to advance in a career, this may result in a spousal support order. These can be highly complex and contentious cases. Our firm has experience in this area of the law and will work to protect your rights and interests.
Once it has been awarded, the level of spousal support may change if a substantial change in circumstances has occurred. In this situation, our firm can go to court to seek a modification in spousal support.
