Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
My husband is going to receive some money due to his mother passing away. We may be separating and/or divorcing. Am I entitled to any of that money since it is coming during the marriage?

No, since such inheritances received by one spouse during the marriage are
normally not considered marital property under the laws of the Commonwealth.
