When you and your spouse get divorced or when your spouse owes you alimony or child support, your attorney may recommend you use a form called a qualified domestic relations order Oklahoma.
The form is often called a QDRO and pronounced “Quad-ro.”
A QDRO helps ensure you get the money the Tulsa family court has awarded to you, and even allows you to collect alimony.
