    Looks like you need a qualified domestic relations order (QDRO). Is this what your attorney failed to do? Spend the $400 and get it done.

    I need help filling out and filing a Qdro form with the Retirement Div. State of Ct. Have form, and need to be walked through the process with a knowing individual. Can anyone out there help me. Seriously dire situation. Disabled, and out of resources completely. Besides ex, just passed away 1-2-14, of lung cancer. Two daughters devastated. Divorced 12-8-98 awarded 30% of ten years, to date of divorce. Wife worked outragious amounts of overtime, and all holidays and triple shifts. God Please help.

    Attorney at time never completed the work paid for, didn't find out until just 3 weeks ago when I found out she had accessed the account. And I didn't receive a thing. Yes, and now the one I saw wants 400.00. might as well be 400000 when you need and don't have.

    Disabled, paid once a month and its gone quick with rent and heat. Is anyone out there capable of assisting with a QDRO St. of Ct. Retirement Div.

    Have you tried calling your local bar association and asking if they have any Lawyers that work on a sliding scale or pro bono ? Do you have anything you can use for collateral that you can get a loan on to get the needed funds and pay back when the checks start coming in ?

    Have you asked at your local church or library? Is there a law school near you ?
