Dear Colleague,
I hope this message finds you well. As you may already be aware, Keist Thurston, PC, has undergone some recent changes that we are excited to share with you.
As you may know, Attorney Richard Underwood is now with our firm. Rick focuses his practice area on drafting QDROs and concentrates his services on the division of Executive Plans, Stock Options, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Stock, Kelly Offsets, and Employee Stock Purchase Plans. Rick also calculates the present-day value of pension plans.
Attorney Robert Harrian focuses his practice area on drafting dividing orders on all types of plans, including 401(K) Plans, Deferred Compensation Plans, ESOP Plans, Military Retirement Plans, Railroad Retirement Plans, CSRS, FERS, Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS), Arizona Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (PSPRS), and City of Phoenix Employee Retirement System, along with many others.
Attorney Jeremy Goad focuses his practice area on drafting QDROs and dividing orders for 401(K) Plans, Deferred Compensation Plans, Military Retirement Plans, CSRS, FERS, Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS), Arizona Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (PSPRS), and City of Phoenix Employee Retirement System.
In summary, Rick, Robert, and Jeremy all focus on the division of marital assets relating to retirement and executive plans throughout all stages of the dissolution process and can assist you in drafting language for your decrees/property settlement agreements.
I’m writing to offer you and your colleagues a valuable opportunity to expand your understanding of Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDROs) with a complimentary Continuing Legal Education (CLE) session.
As you know, QDROs play a critical role in divorce proceedings, ensuring that retirement benefits are divided fairly and legally. However, navigating the intricacies of pension division can be challenging, especially when it comes to ensuring the correct language is in the consent decrees.
To help you stay ahead in this specialized area, I’m offering a free 1-to-2-hour CLE session covering:
- The fundamentals of QDROs, including drafting language for your consent decrees.
- Key pension plan types and their division methods.
- Tips for effectively managing complex retirement asset cases.
The session is designed to be interactive and informative, providing practical insights that you can immediately apply in your practice.
I would be happy to schedule a free session at your convenience. The conference can be either in person or via webinar. We prefer at least five attorneys/legal paraprofessionals attend the training. If you are a sole practitioner, please reach out to your colleagues to ensure at least five people can attend the training. Following the training, each attendee will get a certificate for their CLE credits.
If you’re interested in taking advantage of this opportunity or if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at robert@ktolawfirm.com. I look forward to hearing from you and helping you enhance your knowledge of this important legal tool.
