Splitting Retirement Benefits: Your Guide to QDROs for the Positive Investments Inc. 401(k) Plan

If you’re going through a divorce and either you or your spouse has retirement savings in the Positive Investments Inc. 401(k) Plan, it’s important to understand how these assets can be fairly divided. A Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) is the legal tool used to split retirement accounts like 401(k)s during divorce. But not all plans are the same—and this guide will walk you through what’s specific about this plan and what you need to know to get it done right.

At PeacockQDROs, we’ve completed many QDROs from start to finish. That means we don’t just draft the order and leave you to figure out the rest. We handle the drafting, preapproval (if applicable), court filing, submission, and follow-up with the plan administrator. That’s what sets us apart from firms that only prepare the document and hand it off to you.
