A postnuptial agreement is a good option if you have already entered into marriage and desire to draw up an agreement regarding your finances. Postnuptial or post-marital agreements can provide the same security and stability of prenuptial agreements for couples who have already tied the knot.

Essential Elements of a Postnuptial Agreement

A postnuptial agreement is nearly identical to a prenuptial agreement, save for the period it was drafted. In a post-marital agreement, however, the issue of child custody and support may be included in the agreement as opposed to the prenuptial agreement that only deals with your financial interests.

There are couples in their tenth or twentieth year of marriage who decide to get a postnuptial agreement. While some are being practical or protecting their children from another marriage, others view a postnuptial agreement as an ultimatum for a dying marriage. Whatever the reason, the important thing to remember is that most of the assets acquired during the marriage have already become marital or common property.

Benefits of a Postnuptial Agreement

A postnuptial agreement is a legal document that outlines how assets and debts will be divided in the event of a divorce or separation. It can provide peace of mind and clarity for both parties, especially if there are significant assets involved. Here are some benefits of having a postnuptial agreement:

• Protection of assets acquired during the marriage
• Clarification of financial responsibilities
• Reduction of conflicts and uncertainties in the event of a divorce
• Preservation of family businesses or heirlooms
• Customization of financial arrangements to fit your unique situation

Requirements for Postnuptial Agreements in California

In order for a postnuptial agreement to be enforceable in California, it must be written, signed by both parties, and notarized. A few other aspects are also considered, including:

• Whether it was signed voluntarily, meaning without deception, coercion, threats, or physical force.
• Whether it is considered fair to both parties.
• Whether there was full disclosure of income, assets, property, and debts by both parties.

Our Los Angeles postnuptial agreement attorneys can ensure the agreement meets your best interests as well as the marriage rights and obligations outlined in California family code 721.
