Legal Question in Family Law in Alabama

Spouse's retirement allotments

When you are awarded your spouses retirement, how is it usually allotted.

Will I receive a lump sum immediately? Will I have to wait until he is retirement

age before I receive anything or will I be paid once I have a final decree in monthly

installments?
