Clients frequently ask how they can protect their retirement funds during
a divorce. This is a bit tricky because, without a prenup (done before
the marriage) or postnup (done during the marriage), there’s no
feasible way to keep your spouse from having access to your retirement funds.
If you contribute money during your marriage, your spouse is entitled to
the increase in value during that time. You are entitled to the value before the marriage and after the date
of separation.
However, agreements can be made. For example, one party could keep all
their retirement and the other party may get to keep the house.
