About QDRO Institute
I spent fifty years in the legal profession — as a practicing attorney, as a judge on the bench, and inside the QDRO preparation industry itself.
I made a good living from that last role. And I’m done pretending it was built on anything other than a lie.
The lie is this: that retirement division is too complex, too risky, too dangerous for a family law attorney to handle. That the responsible thing is to outsource the most valuable asset in your client’s divorce to a specialist you’ll never meet, who wasn’t in the room when the decisions were made, and who bears no liability when something goes wrong.
An entire industry exists because attorneys believe that lie. I helped build it. I know exactly how it works.
QDRO Institute™ is what I built after I decided to stop profiting from the fear and start dismantling it.
It is a retirement division system for Texas family law attorneys — with a Controlled Pipeline™ from intake to distribution, the QI Advisor™ knowledge engine that answers plan-specific questions instantly, and a guarantee that no QDRO preparer has ever offered.
A QDRO is not a document. It’s a system. And the system belongs to you.
