If you have substantial assets, it is important to protect them before you marry. A prenuptial agreement sets out how financial matters will be handled in the event of divorce — protecting assets that are rightfully yours from becoming marital property and limiting your financial exposure.
Protection Without Poisoning the Well
We have many years of experience drafting and negotiating these agreements, and we understand the sensitivity involved. A wedding should be one of the happiest moments of your life; our job is not to upset that moment, but to protect your interests in case the relationship fails. We work to strike the balance between firm protection and a harmonious relationship.
Postnuptial Agreements
Sometimes circumstances during a marriage call for a post-marital agreement. A postnuptial agreement operates the same way as a prenuptial agreement, except that it is signed after you marry.
