        Question:

        What is Important to Know About Dividing a Premarital Retirement Account?

        Answer:

        As an experienced Saratoga Divorce Attorney, clients often ask how a retirement account is divided if it was started before the marriage.

        • Funds held in a 401K or profit sharing plan prior to marriage remain separate funds and will not be divided in the divorce.
        • Issues may arise around the premarital portion versus what went into the plan since the marriage. If a sizeable sum was invested in the plan, it may have appreciated in value.
        • If additional funds have appreciated, an expert can make appropriate calculations and determine what remains separate property and what is considered marital.
