Divorce Support Forums: QDRO

I don't see why I'd need an attorney, as on the final decree (simplified,uncontested, one page) the judge HAND Wrote next to #6."the court reserves jurisdiction to modify and enforce this final judgement"..and she (Jugde) wrote:
"to set child support & to set a visitation schedule if necessary & to enter a Qualified Domestic Relations Order to divide pensions. All other issues regarding marital assets have been resolved"
This was in 2001. Nothing was ever needed to be "ordered". I no longer pay child support as the child is 21. Visitation was never an issure, and we had agreed to keep are own pensions. (although not noted in final decree.)
SOOO....if a QDRO was never needed, never entered, isn't it a moot point and shouldn't this be simple to resolve, i.e., the pension people calling the clerk of courts to verify nothing was ever needed? I have called the clerk of courts & been told they are "just record keepers" I called the judges asst., and got no help. It just seems that there should be an easy answer to this..short of hiring an attorney to draw up papers that don't exisit, or are not relavant????
