Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan

Qdro

My wife finished our divorce herself without a lawyer. In the divorce decree, she stated that she would supply me with all the proper paperwork, and I would turn the paperwork into my company to release the money from my 401k to her. She failed to have the QDRO drawn up by an attorney, and now is taking me to court for the money, about 2000 in cash, in leiu of the QDRO? What are my obligations here? Giving her cash was not my agreement.

If you were foolish enough to let your wife handle your divorce, you surely are not bright enough to deal with the problems that she's created for you. Hire an experienced family law attorney to try to fix your stupid mistakes.

If the divorce judgment says that the retirement is transfered by QDRO, then that is how it should be transfered. With that in mind, it is important to have the judgment reviewed by an attorney. For more info, please contact my office at (248)8513171.
