Texas Laws on Division of Retirement Assets and Pensions
In Texas, retirement assets earned during a marriage are considered community property and are typically divided equally in a divorce. This includes public and private pension plans. A Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) or a Domestic Relations Order (DRO) is required to legally divide these retirement benefits.
The Q(DRO) must comply with Texas state laws and adhere to the specific rules of the retirement plan involved.
