Would appreciate some advice please on how the court would view division of assets in the following circumstance. Adult son, currently at university has a serious medical condition, but not diagnosed with certainty. Son lives with husband in the marital home. Wife lives in rented house with 11 years old. A financial remedy is sought between the couple - is the court likely to take account of the adult sons condition and future needs with regard to split of assets please? with thanks.

Potentially yes, depending on prognosis and care needed. It would be a factor that cannot be ignored in any settlement.
