Legal separation and questions about benefits

Question:

hi Jim my husband of 26 yrs committed adultery this July traigic to me. I first like to know my entitlement.  13 of these years he was active. He said that I would only get 21% of his retirement. Secondly, where can I get legal separation papers from? thanks.

Jim's Reply:

I can't address any sort of possible outcomes of a divorce. To go forward you really need a divorce attorney to guide you. That's really the only choice that makes sense.
