Legal Question in Family Law in Oregon
I was married for 24 years to my ex-husband. I understand that half of his pension and social security benefits apply to me also. Is this true? I also understand that this option dissolves if I re-marry, is this true? And is there any impact on these options if I now live in a different state than he does at this time, or than at the time we were married? Does his status of re-marriage have an effect on this also?

Please keep in mind that each case is different and much depends on specific case facts and circumstances. Each of your questions really calls for a expanded explanation (more than can be provided here) in order to fully explain. You are well-advised to make an appoint with the an Oregon family law lawyer for an office conference at which your case can be fully evaluation and the lawyer can then provide you would details and case-specific counsel and advice.
