Re: divorce

Social Security is governed by Federal Law and not assignable by an individual to a party not authorized by law. As for your pension, you will need to contact your pension administrator to determine if you can place a beneficiary on the pension or if there is a death benefit that can be listed and whom is elegible.

If you have further questions or wish to discuss this or any other matter you can contact me at jrslaw@optonline or 516/746/4747.
