QDRO Preparation Attorney Fees
	Summary. Because of increased use of computer technology, divorce QDRO preparation fees are usually done on a low fixed fee basis.

For most QDROs and similar court orders, the following fixed fees apply:

• 401(k) plans: $275.00
• Most other defined contribution plans, such as profit sharing plans, 403(b), 457 plans: $275.00
• Colorado PERA plans: $275.00
• Most defined benefit pension plans, such as standard corporate annuity plans: $350.00.
• Most federal civil service and FERS plans: $400.00 (assumes court orders are detailed)
  

For two or more plans, a reduced fee applies, because the plans are between the same two former spouses. Much of the information used in the separate plans for the same case is the same.

If a federal retirement plan is not sufficiently detailed in the separation agreement, mediation memorandum of understanding, or permanent orders, additional fees may apply because of the complexity and time required to educate the former spouses as to the plan options.
