Prenuptial Agreement & Postnuptial Agreement

Postnuptial & Prenuptial Agreements in California

Premarital Agreements are enforceable.  They are useful at the time of marriage to specify each party’s separate property, and to state a fair settlement in the event of separation or divorce.  In a Premarital Agreement, we can provide for our loved one in the event of death, and establish parameters for spousal support in the event of separation or divorce.

A prenuptial agreement can be a type of “divorce insurance,” because it can save parties significant legal fees. And, while a promise set forth in an estate plan (or in a will or trust) can be revised or revoked by either spouse, a commitment in a prenuptial agreement is enforceable, and cannot be revised or revoked by one spouse. This enforceability provides peace of mind and financial security, making it a valuable tool for couples entering marriage.one spouse.
