QDRO big problem
      #741740 - 04/16/11 05:20 PM

Please help/advice

Divorced 11 years ago . Qdro was NOT included in divorce
papers, because these papers included special sort of division of 401 and retirement benefits .
six years later ex took me to the court for "second divorce", won almost everything, and all special divisions were cancelled.
I had 4 lawyers in this second case .
Last lawyer, promised to do regular QDRO for me for no charge, and it was 2 years ago .
Lawyer is not doing anything , does not answers my emails,
I do not know place of work of my ex .
I live abroad, divorce was in New Mexico .
Regarding to divorce papers, and even the part which was not changed, I should get my part of 401 almost 4 years ago .

My question is :

Can lawyer who is not based in the State of New Mexico ,
process QDRO for person divorced in this state ?

second, If yes, and I would hire a lawyer and give to him
all my permissions by email, will be "my" lawyer obligated to provide all information to new person in charge ?

third, if two answers are yes, is this good idea to hire
someone over Internet , and how to do it ?

If answers/answer is no , WHAT TO DO ???

I am sick, need money desperately, amount which I guess I should get, half of money accumulated before divorce (marriage almost 30 years long), should be about 30k .

Please do not advice to talk to "my" lawyer,
he is NOT working for my sake .
I tried everything possible .

thanks
eva

Call Legal Aid in the town or city where the marriage was in New Mexico.
