Re: split settlement
Since you sued, you obviously have an attorney. SInce you are paying that lawyer, ask him/her. They should be advising you on your rights

The other answer is right. Your personal injury attorney may not deal with family law, though. Also your answer doesn't indicate whether you are still married or whether you were still married at the time that you fell, that is a major consideration.
