In general, funds in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) are protected from creditors under federal law, particularly in bankruptcy situations. However, this protection can vary by state and may not apply to all debt types. Certain exceptions exist, such as in cases of unpaid taxes or court-ordered payments. It's essential to consult a financial advisor or legal expert for specific circumstances regarding creditor claims on IRA funds.
