Providing Legal Insight In Prenuptial And Postnuptial Agreements

Marital agreements are a special form of contract. Both prenuptial and postnuptial (antenuptial) agreements establish spouses’ rights in the event of divorce. Key issues typically addressed in these agreements include the distribution of property and alimony. To be legally enforceable, these agreements must comply with certain requirements under New York law.

Entering Into A Prenuptial Or Antenuptial Agreement

There are many compelling reasons for entering into a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement. Protecting yourself against contingencies does not undermine your commitment to the marriage. It is always wise to be proactive and prepared.
