Except as provided in section 15-5-504, to the extent a beneficiary's interest is not subject to a spendthrift provision, the court may authorize a creditor or assignee of the beneficiary to attach present or future distributions to or for the benefit of the beneficiary. The court may limit the award to such relief as is appropriate under the circumstances. Nothing in this part 5 modifies other Colorado law governing limitations on the amounts that may be applied to the satisfaction of a creditor's claim, or the procedures by which a creditor may attempt to satisfy a claim.
