If I get a divorce with my husband of 12 years, is he entitled to half of my retirement?

Retirement division is a fairly specialized area of divorce, and if you end up dividing retirement benefits, an attorney well versed in this area of law will be needed. In general, all assets and all debts acquired during the marriage will be split 50/50 in the event of a Dissolution of that marriage. If you are able to agree on the division of assets and debts (whether equal division or not), you can file a Stipulated Judgment and divide the assets and debts in whatever way you both agree to divide them.

You should notify the court in advance. The scheduling conference may be able to be held with you and your wife attending telephonically. The court can also reschedule the status conference. If no one appears, and if you have not contacted the court, the matter might be dismissed. If that happens you would need start over.
