I divorce in 1988 my ex-spouse deceased in 2016 I never signed A QDRO. He remarried am I still entitled to any part of his pension

Richard Scott Diamond
Answered by attorney Richard Scott Diamond (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Diamond & Diamond, P.A.
According to the information provided, it appears that you were married in 1976 and divorce in 1988 and in the divorce agreement, you either got no portion of your former spouse pension plan in the division of assets or the agreement was silent as to your entitlement to share in your former spouses pension plan. If this information is correct, then you have no claim or entitlement to share in the "marital portion" of his pension plan. For you to have an interest in his pension, the starting point would have been the divorce agreement. If the agreement did not provide for you to have a piece of that plan, then you would not have been entitled to a QDRO ( qualified domestic relations order) for a portion of the plan.

Does it matter who files divorce papers

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
Usually it does not.  If one party files first and both parties are filing without another cause of action like adultery or something like that, ten it doesn't matter who is the plaintiff and who is the defendant.

Do all assets become half owned by your spouse after marriage?

Answered by attorney Glenn E. Tanner (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Glenn E. Tanner, Attorney at Law
Title matters very little in determining whether something is separate or community. You need to see an attorney to figure this out. The paperwork you mention is not the issue, determining whether something is separate or community is what takes time.
