Separated for 6 months. Possibly receiving an inheritance in the next 6 months. Would the separated spouse be entitled to half of the inheritance?

Thank you

Not enough detail for someone to comment.

In some situations yes, in many others no. In either case it helps to start a property division earlier rather than later.
