Many couples getting married decide to enter into a prenuptial agreement (or premarital agreement), with good reason. Doing so can have numerous benefits, including giving each spouse peace of mind that their financial needs will be met in the event of a divorce, as well as protecting their assets acquired prior to, or even during, the marriage. Entering into a prenuptial agreement can also greatly eliminate stress and attorney fees by agreeing on issues that would otherwise have to be litigated.
The parties can agree on not only how assets acquired during the marriage will be treated, but how they will be divided in the event of death or divorce. Parties can also agree to waive maintenance (spousal support), or even agree to under what circumstances maintenance will be paid. The attorneys at Collins Family Law have extensive experience in drafting premarital agreements and can help guide you in coming to an agreement that best protects your interests and financial future.
