Legal Question in Family Law in New York
Divorce and Disability of a spouse
I am disabled by a brain aneurysm - I had one rupture and surgery, and have another aneurysm awaiting treatment. I am also planning on getting divorced. How will my disability affect the martial asset division and any spousal support? I receive SS benefits as well as private disability insurance right now.

Re: Divorce and Disability of a spouse
Your situation will obviously be taken into consideration. However, without knowing ALL of the relevant facts, you will not get a definitive answer here.
Suggest you consult with an experienced matrimonial attorney.
FYI - I practice in NYC and Long Island.
