QUESTION
Am I entitled to any portion of his settlement?
Asked on Jan 17th, 2013 on Divorce - Michigan
More details to this question:
I was in accident while undergoing IVF treatment. My husband and I were both injured, but I was unable to receive treatment because of the treatment (my eggs were to be retrieved two days later). As a result, my now ex-husband received a healthy settlement whereas I received a very small amount. I was unable to be treated by doctors unrelated to my fertility treatment. Other doctors did not want to risk other problems and had me see my specialist. We were married and together at the time of the accident and did not divorce until a year later.

It should have been addressed in the judgment of divorce. If it was not, then it is unlikely that you are entitled to the proceeds of his settlement.

Your rights to his settlement ended with your divorce unless it was dealt with in the judgment.
