Pension arrangements should have been included in the divorce terms by your solicitor, mine was.

A divorce generally divides the marriage assets so this would include any pensions. By law a divorce requires the 2 parties to attempt mediation to come to a mutual financial agreement, if they can't agree then it goes to court.

 As has been said before this should all have been put to bed before divorce was finalised. Pretty sure he can't claim on the pension now.

Get your daughter to a solicitors for advice, do they not do the first visit free?

XVI yes?

Divorce requires disclosure of assets from both parties so his solicitor is entitled to ask for details of pension value. Did her ex know she had this pension at time of divorce?

11 years ago I let me ex wife have the house, which at that time was valued at £150k in return she waved any claim on my pension.

Yes, but surely this is before the divorce goes through, it was in my case.

Either party in a divorce can ask for a variation in the settlement at any time after a divorce due to a change of circumstances etc. If both parties cannot reach an agreement it can be decided in court.

All one can really do on this thread is to point out to the op that yes, it is possible but without knowing the full facts it is impossible to speculate on the actual outcome.

If she has to pay him some pension make sure the DWP is notified as he cannot claim from you and also DWP. They will subtract the amount daughter pays him from his state pension. If he has hardly ever worked, he will probably be receiving Pension Credit.
Best way out of this is to state that she will be advising the DWP that she will be making payments to him. I bet he will back off very quickly.
