Each state has exemptions for 401k and other retirement plans. I do not know what the exemption amount is in Florida, but your 401k is protected to a certain extent.

Florida has very broad protections for consumer debtors. There are exceptions, but in general, any federally recognized retirement plan will be exempt from the claims of creditors. See Florida Statutes §222.21
