California's community property laws specify that marital property be divided equally between spouses at the time of divorce or dissolution of a domestic partnership. Property division can be complex and confusing, especially when one or more partners have a retirement plan or pension account that needs to be considered.
At the Law Offices of Cherie T. Davis, a Livermore, California, family law firm, we help individuals who are facing a divorce or dissolution navigate the complicated process of dividing assets they have set aside for the future, including:
- 401(k) plans
- Pensions
- Stock options
- Profit-sharing plans
