Prenuptial Agreements Lawyer

A prenuptial agreement is a contract between two marriage partners that details how property owned by each partner prior to the commencement of the marriage will be divided if the marriage should be terminated.  In the prenuptial agreement, details concerning the distribution of the partners’ individual and jointly owned property will be addressed.  Prenuptial agreements are legally binding and may be filed before the couple is married or after the couple is married. 

Types of Prenuptial Agreements

There are two types of prenuptial agreements:

Marriage Contract – a prenuptial agreement between two married people that may be created before or during the marriage.

Cohabitation Agreement – a prenuptial agreement between two people who live together, but who do not wish to marry.
