If it's for the purpose of equitable distribution, yes, it's wrong. Inheritance is separate property.

My husbands 401k was started during our marriage, we have been married for 14 years am I entitled to half of it when we divorce?

Kristen Prata Browde
Answered by attorney Kristen Prata Browde (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Browde Law, P.C.
Under the circumstances you describe the 401k is a marital asset subject to equitable distribution. However, with regard to the $11k, more information is needed. Consult a local divorce lawyer and discuss the situation in detail.
