The simple answer is yes you can. You will need to bring a motion to divide the retirement plan and prepare a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. It would be difficult to do without an attorney. Most family law attorney's will not prepare a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
