HI JM. My Xwife and I were at the time of discussing divorce, attending a fed retirement seminar.They advised I provide for a 1% survivorship of my soon to be Xwife. Shortly thereafter, she was able to return to the NY State teaching position she’s left many years earlier. Upon returning, she was allowed to return in the tier level she originally was hired under. In so doing, she obtained Blue Cross/Blue Shield NYS at no cost then as an employee or now as a retiree. My health, also BC/BS Federal , costs hundreds a month. She will never take availability of my coverage, not only because of cost, but the State coverage is a better, more3 inclusive plan . Anyway, it’s a bit more complicated with other considerations. We both want to somehow remove her from my pension system and can only do so by cancelling or modifying the QDRO. Problem; I cant find an attorney knowledgeable as to how to achieve that. Can you give any guidance on who might be able to help ? Thank you for your response earlier. Bill

Can anyone recommend firm to help cancel our QDRO. My edifies and I separated very amicably. At time of divorce, we had a QDRO submitted, giving her 1 % of my federal pension so she could maintain fed health benefits. She subsequently got a job w NYS , negating the need for the QDRO. For several reasons, we want to cancel/negate it. No one seems to know how, some even say it cant be done. Any advice ?
