What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
Hello,
I was divorced in Ca in 2001. In my divorce decree it states that "we acknowlege we own a community asset retirement benefits earned by husband as result of his employment with the us navy during the marriage. That is retirement shall be divided according to a "time rule formula". The court reserves jurisdiction to enter orders dividing the same.
At this time my exhusband has retired as of 11/30/09. I have found the form that I need to send the department of finance for the navy. Howver on that form it asks for the percentage of the retirment pay that is to be paid to me. No where on my divorce decree does it state a percentage. How do I go around this? I have contacted my old attorney in Ca and his charging 2 hours to review my divorce decree and fill out the paperwork. I am getting worried that there might have been an error on my attorney's part almost 9 years ago and that will affect the out come in me obtaing part of his retirement funds. Any idea's whay I can do or if this is fixable?
