I have a workers comp. settlement cumming in a divorce do I have to split it?

MARYLAND: Lowery v. Lowery, 113 Md. App. 423, 688 A.2d 65 (1997). Although the husband's injury underlying his workers' compensation settlement occurred before the parties' marriage, the award should be classified as marital property to the extent that it compensated the husband for lost wages or future earning capacity during the marriage or for medical expenses paid out of marital assets.
