Prenuptial / Postnuptial Agreements
Florida Prenuptial / Postnuptial Agreements
Under Florida law, a prenuptial agreement is a contract signed between two parties who intend to get married, which defines their respective rights and abilities during the marriage, or in case of divorce. Prenuptial agreements can help avoid costly legal battles and dictate how assets should be divided in the event of a divorce. They can cover various issues such as asset distribution, property division, promises made between parties, and post-divorce support.
Similarly, a postnuptial agreement in Florida is akin to a prenuptial agreement. It may be created without the anticipation of divorce and is used to establish the rights of parties during the marriage or in the event of death. Postnuptial agreements can also be created when a married couple foresees divorce and wants to amicably distribute their assets. Like prenuptial agreements, postnuptial agreements must be in writing and reviewed by a qualified divorce attorney to ensure that all rights are adequately protected.
