I am not sure how AskerofQuestion could read
Rose v Rose differently. It seems pretty straightforward. It says clearly that VA benefits are intended to support the veteran
and the veteran's dependents. Thanks for providing the link, Proserpina.
Other than the issue of alimony, which seems to be a matter of contention for most ex-spouses who are ordered to pay, I am as puzzled by the original post as ecmst12 is.
There does not appear to be any question (sort of) posed by AskerofQuestion that needs resolving. There definitely does not appear to be any ethical issues raised or lawyer malpractice displayed.
(the "statesidelegal" link, by the way Pro, directs to the same "fact sheet" that was provided earlier through the ABA link
)
