California Family Law Document Preparation Service
Attorneys Handling Prenuptial & Postnuptial Agreements in California
If you are engaged or married and are interested in taking steps to protect your future, you should speak to a California family lawyer about the possibility of a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement. Prenuptial & postnuptial agreements are legal documents that predetermine division of assets, arrangements of alimony, or any other aspects that a couple wishes to address in the contract. Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements must be in writing and will contain a full disclosure of assets either before the marriage takes place, or afterwards. Prenuptial agreements are made in situations where a couple is engaged and not yet married, while post nuptial agreements are made after a couple has already entered into marriage.
In situations where a person has a considerable amount of assets, property, or inheritance in California, it can be very wise to pursue a prenuptial agreement. Prenuptial agreements can be a great way for a couple to square away important financial issues before getting married. Sometimes people accumulate assets, property, or inheritance after they are already married, and in these cases they may wish to enact a postnuptial agreement to protect their financial future in the event of separation, divorce, infidelity, or death.
