Re: awarded 50% of ex-husband retirement

In a general sense, you are probably going to need something called a "joinder" and a "QDRO".

For a specific opinion regarding your individual circumstances, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer and provide him or her with a copy of the underlying Judgment. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
