Social Security Benefits in Divorce

 

Understand how social security or disability income is factored into a divorce case.

All family law practitioners will at one time address Social Security benefits (retirement, disability, death) in a divorce or post-judgment petition. The need to understand how these benefits may be obtained, and how they affect property division, alimony, and child support is paramount, especially as gray divorces become more prevalent.
