Were you awarded a share of your former spouse’s retirement plan, be it a pension, profit sharing plan, Ohio Public Employees Retirement System, 401(k), IRA, etc.?
If you were, were the proper orders prepared, filed, and served upon the retirement plan administrators? Have the retirement plan administrators recognized you as an “alternate payee”, and to your rights of the share of your former spouse’s retirement plan awarded to you?
If not, you WILL NOT receive the share of your former spouse’s retirement plan awarded to you from your divorce or dissolution of marriage!
We can help advise you regarding this process and to review the orders (if issued) to make sure that you receive the retirement benefits awarded to you. Ask us how.
