Premarital & Postnuptial Agreements

Protecting Your Property with Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements

Premarital and postnuptial partition agreements can be very effective in ensuring a party’s property interests are protected in the event of a divorce or death. Such agreements allow parties to create a contract that makes a predetermination of the terms of a future divorce, including property rights and spousal maintenance.

These agreements provide clarity and peace of mind by reducing uncertainty and minimizing conflict should a marriage end. They can be particularly valuable when one or both parties enter the marriage with significant assets, business interests, or children from a previous relationship. By setting expectations in advance, couples can avoid costly litigation, preserve family wealth, and approach their relationship with mutual understanding and transparency.

Why Proper Drafting Is Critical

If not properly drafted, these agreements will not withstand claims against their validity and enforceability. Bollier Ciccone Stinson LLP’s team of family law experts will ensure that your premarital and postnuptial agreements are properly drafted and, most importantly, ultimately enforceable. These agreements can also save thousands of dollars in future attorneys’ fees by anticipating such issues upfront.

Prenuptial and postnuptial partition agreements can address many issues in the event of a divorce, including:

  • Payment of attorneys’ fees in a divorce

  • Duties and obligations of one or both spouses during the marriage
  • Ownership and characterization of property
  • Rights and obligations regarding marital property
  • Division or disposition of property in the event of death or divorce
  • Spousal support or contractual alimony
  • Tax and estate planning issues
