Re: Divorce and support

The concept of marriage today is that of an economic partnership, in which we share income and assests, as well as losses and liabilities, regardless of title.

Of course you will be entitled to a portion of his pension, in the event of a divorce.

Suggest you consult with an experienced matrimonial attorney as well.

If you wish to discuss this with me privately, please call to schedule a consultation.

I practice in NYC and Long Island.
