Want To Lose ½ <strong>Of</strong> Your Retirement…?<br />

…Get a divorce. Yes, in divorce proceedings your retirement<br />

is a marital asset which is subject to distribution.<br />

Absurd you say? Welcome to Florida, an equitable<br />

distribution state. Florida’s dissolution of marriage laws<br />

found in Chapter 61 of the Florida Statutes provide for<br />

equitable distribution.<br />

In essence, all assets acquired during a marriage are<br />

considered marital and therefore equitably divided.<br />

This applies to assets despite whose name they are titled<br />

in. For example, take this fictitious couple, <strong>Of</strong>ficer<br />

Smith is married to Wife Smith. They have been married<br />

for 15 years. <strong>Of</strong>ficer Smith has been with the PBSO<br />

for 14 years. He has acquired retirement, accrued vacation<br />

time and an investment account which he worked<br />

very hard to save from his detail work. Wife Smith files<br />

for a divorce. Wife Smith is entitled to half of the retirement,<br />

cash value of the vacation time accrued and half<br />

of the investment account. Best bet for <strong>Of</strong>ficer Smith?<br />

Marriage counseling.<br />

There are circumstances in which would change the<br />

equitable distribution of your retirement to where one<br />

party would be entitled to slightly more than the other<br />

(unequal distribution). However, these circumstances<br />

are so limited that they rarely apply in practice.<br />

In the event that your spouse also has a retirement plan<br />

then it would of course be part of the marital pile of assets<br />

to be divided. Consider this example: Detective Alvarez<br />

has a retirement which he has been accumulating<br />

for 20 years. Wife Alvarez has a retirement she has been<br />

accumulating for 22 years. They have been married for<br />

10 years. In this case, there are 10 years of accumulation<br />

of marital retirement assets which need to be divided. If<br />

during the 10 years of marriage/accumulation the Detective<br />

accumulated $75,000 and the Wife accumulated<br />

$50,000 then we would be equalizing the marital portion<br />

of the retirement accounts. The pre-marital portions<br />

would remain in-tact.<br />

Whatever your factual situation, have an expert assist<br />

you in the process so that you don’t end up like Client<br />

X. Client X thought he had struck a great deal with his<br />

spouse. X’s retirement assets were worth $750,000. Their<br />

post tax investment account was also worth $750,000.<br />

After agreeing to the “equal” exchange with Wife X (and<br />

signing the agreement) Client X wanted me to filing the<br />

divorce case. Lesson? Retirement accounts are pre-tax<br />

assets and therefore the net value of the pre-tax retirement<br />

account is lower than after tax assets. This is not<br />

an “equal” exchange. Don’t make this or other costly errors.<br />
