About
The mission of this site is to aquaint current employees, active duty and reserve component military members, attorneys and other interested parties with the important aspects of Civil Service pay, Civil Service annuities, Military pay and Military retired pay.
We also endeavor to provide some guidance through the often impassible thicket of QDROs (Qualified Domestic Relations Order), COAPs (Court Orders Acceptable for Processing), valuation of pensions for divison in divorce — NPV (Net Present Value) and other financial aspects of the divorce process.
In particular, our focus will be on those who are contemplating or in the process of divorce. Equitable distribution of retired pay and benefits is often one of the most important aspects of a dissolution of marriage and yet it is often one of the least known areas of legal expertise.
