My husband and I will soon be separating. Fortunately it's amicable and we will be in agreement about the financial arrangement with regards to the division of assets. A couple of people have said to me that I am eligible for a portion of his pension as I have been out of work/had periods of part-time income since we had our daughter 7 years ago. If you are divorced, did you include the pension in the settlement? I'm interested to know if it's standard practice to do this.
