A pension will be included in a financial settlement during a divorce. There are a few ways the court can handle a pension during divorce proceedings:
The length of the marriage – and whether or not you have children – will also dictate whether or not a pension will be included in the financial settlement. For short marriages without children, a pension will likely be left to the pension owner. For longer marriages, one of the three above courses will be taken when settling your pension fund.
We always recommend seeking legal advice when it comes to handling pensions during a divorce. This will keep you informed on whether or not a pension is entitled to a spouse, or which course of action is best for your specific situation.
