Hello - my ex-wife and I are both American, but live in Canada (Ontario) as permanent residents. We were divorced last year and, in our separation agreement, agreed to split my pension. As I understand it, we now need to domesticate our divorce in the US, and then file the QDRO, referencing that domesticated decree. I'm looking for a lawyer in the US that is familiar and experienced in domesticating an Ontario divorce. It should be as simple as domesticating an Ontario divorce order that contains the language re the pension split, and filing the QDRO, for which my former employer provides a nice, simple template. The problem is, we don't live in the US, presently. Would welcome any advice or referrals. Thanks!
