Some couples wait until after they are married to enter into an agreement defining their property rights and financial obligations in the event of a divorce. Such agreements are referred to a postnuptial agreements (or postmarital agreements). Entering into such agreements can not only serve to protect each spouse’s respective rights, but also eliminate the need to litigate several issues in the event of a divorce, which can be stressful and costly.
Such agreements can cover the same areas as prenuptial or premarital agreements, including defining each party’s non-marital property, how marital property and debt should be divided in the event of divorce, whether either or both spouses agree to waive maintenance, and under what circumstances maintenance may be paid.
The attorneys at Collins Family Law, LLC have the experience to draft such an agreement and guide you through the process to ensure your rights are protected in coming to an agreement.
