Pre and Post Nuptial Agreements
A prenuptial agreement is a contract entered into prior to a marriage or civil union. A postnuptial agreement is a similar contract entered into after a marriage or civil union. These agreements can vary considerably, but they often include how property will be divided and arrangements for spousal support in the event of death, or divorce.
Although Pre-Nuptial Agreements are not yet legally binding if every effort is made to ensure that they are entered into properly, with the correct procedure being followed, they can be of strong evidential value in the event of a dispute.
You may find that you are unable to satisfy the requirements for a Pre-Nuptial Agreement or indeed you may have already married, in which case you should consider a Post Nuptial Agreement. We can advise on all these aspects.
