Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana
I am a divorced woman of retirement age. I was married to my ex-husband for 18 years. He worked for his company for 35 years. He was at that job when we were married and was there when we were divorced. We were not married at time of his retirement. Am I entitled to any of his retirement?

Probably. Contact a lawyer about getting a QDRO (Qualified Domestic Relations Order), There are formulas to calculate these matters.

The community property should have been done at the time of the divorce or shortly thereafter. Yes you have a right to a portion.
