In a general sense, a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) is an order directing a pension plan to divide the community interest at the commencement of retirement. This is an extremely important document!
For a specific opinion regarding your individual circumstances, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
