If I get a legal separation, do I have to leave my home?

Annette M Cox Sandoval
Answered by attorney Annette M Cox Sandoval (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Cox Sandoval Law, PLLC
A legal separation has to resolve property issues just like a divorce. Depending upon who owns the house, what disclaimer deeds etc have been signed, will determine who can stay. I would consult an attorney if you want more information.

You can get a court order for possession of the house in a divorce action. The issue of payment and other support factors will be considered. Talk to a lawyer to discuss further.

Will the state give his ex-wife half of the part time pension or only the pension that is named on the QDRO, which is his current full time job?

Answered by attorney John E. Kirchner (Unclaimed Profile)

Your fact statement is too confusing to be certain what the issue is. But, as a rule all property issues decided in a divorce case are final and permanent, meaning decisions cannot be changed later. The state cannot do anything other than what a court order requires, even if you mean that the "state" is also the employer or the retirement plan administrator. A QDRO only applies to one single, specified retirement plan that existed at the time of divorce.
