Creating a Prenuptial Agreement
Prenuptial agreements are often used to protect the inheritances of children from prior marriages. Without a prenuptial agreement, certain assets could go to a new spouse rather than to your children, despite your wishes or intentions. Such agreements can also be used to exempt separate assets from a property division settlement in the event of divorce.
An attorney at our firm can review your situation and discuss your goals. Then we can draft a prenuptial agreement or review a proposed agreement.
If you are considering creating a prenuptial agreement, you should keep these principles in mind:
- It is important to provide sufficient time before the wedding date for the other party to review the proposed agreement.
- You should disclose all of your property, debts and income in the agreement.
- Each party should have his or her own attorney.
Failure to follow these guidelines could cause the court to declare the document invalid.
Calabrese Associates, P.C. has created many prenuptial agreements for clients in a wide range of circumstances, as well as negotiated changes in prenuptial agreements drafted by opposing attorneys. We will work closely with you to develop an agreement that accomplishes your goals and can stand up in court.
Postnuptial Agreements
Postnuptial agreements are often used to update a prenuptial agreement, to protect an inheritance or the ownership rights in a family business, or as an incentive to preserve a marriage. Our attorneys can assist you in drafting a post-nuptial agreement that can protect your rights as well as preserve marital harmony.
