Do I only get half until day we divorced or does it accumulate interest or get half of all retirement when she retires?

You are entitled to your portion whenever she becomes eligible to withdraw funds - not necessarily when she retires. The court can only divide what exists at the time of divorce, whatever accumulates after the divorce is owned by the person who earned it. I suggest you hire a lawyer.

Can we go to another county court to file divorce if both of us are not against it?

Your county of residence is the proper place to file for divorce. If you've lived in your current county for at least ninety days and the state of Texas for 6 months, you've met the jurisdictional requirements to file for divorce where you currently live. For more information, be sure to contact a local attorney for a divorce consultation.
