Re: Entitlement to workman comp settlement

Hello. Yes. In my opinion the workman's comp.

settlement constitutes marital property. You would be entitled to 1/2 the value. However, if

you have a pension, he could get 1/2 of the value

of your pension. There are a lot of issues to

consider. Will be happy to answer any additional

questions you may have.
