If you need help with a Qualified Domestic Relation Order (QDRO), Laguna Legal is here to help. We’ve been helping California residents with legal documents like QDRO, living trusts, child custody, and more for the past 23 years!
California is home to 39.5 million people, making it the most populated state. California is known for its warm weather, great beaches, surfing, Hollywood and the filmmaking industry, the Golden Gate Bridge, and several national parks.
There is no California QDRO statute of limitation but it is recommended that you move forward with the preparation and filing of a QDRO immediately after the Judgment of Dissolution is entered on your case. This will ensure that the Plan Administrator divides and distributes the qualified accounts as soon as administratively possible. It is not a good idea to wait because if the Participant dies prior to distribution, it may be difficult for the Alternate Payee to receive an award under the Plan.
There is no statute of limitation on enforcing a QDRO judgment in California but it is recommended that you move forward with the preparation and filing of a QDRO immediately after the Judgment of Dissolution is entered on your case. This will ensure that the Plan Administrator divides and distributes the qualified accounts as soon as administratively possible. It is not a good idea to wait because if the Participant dies prior to distribution, it may be difficult for the Alternate Payee to receive an award under the Plan.
Laguna Legal will help you and work with your plan administrator to gather the required information to prepare the initial draft of the QDRO. Once the draft QDRO is prepared, the document is forwarded to your plan administrator to make a preliminary determination of its qualified status. Laguna Legal will then work directly with you to make any required updates and file the QDRO in the appropriate California court.
When you work with Laguna Legal to prepare and file your QDRO, there is no attorney involved with the process. Laguna Legal is a bonded and certified Legal Document Service who has been helping clients represent themselves and navigate through the QDRO preparation and filing process. Laguna Legal charges a low monthly fee of $500 per month throughout the preparation and filing process.

A QDRO is often referred to as a Quadro. This is the way to split a 401(k) or other Retirement account without tax implications to the parties. This is a pre-tax distribution of retirement accounts which is ordered by the court following a divorce action.
