Some private pensions are not protected under state and/or federal law. All SS benefits are protected under federal statute from creditor attachment as are all government and military pensions. Any benefits that are exempt from creditor levy should never be commingled with other funds in the same bank account, to do so could result in the account being"frozen" until the court rules on how much of said monies are exempt from levy. The best option is such cases where it is unclear if pension benefits are protected is for the holder to obtain legal advice before a creditor seeks legal recourse.
