Benefits Of Prenuptial And Postnuptial Agreements

Signing a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement does not mean the marriage will fail. It means that you and your spouse are protected from unforeseen circumstances in the future. These agreements can shield your family from lengthy and expensive legal battles that may accompany divorce.

Prenuptial agreements are signed before marriage and postnuptial agreements are signed after marriage. Some couples choose to sign a postnuptial agreement if they have come across a large sum of money or have grown a successful business. This will allow you to choose how those assets would be divided in case of divorce.

How Do These Agreements Work?

Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements can protect your assets and property. These agreements can help you plan for the distribution of assets and division of property in case of divorce. However, these agreements cannot establish custody or visitation rights for children. We can help you establish or modify child custody orders.

What Can You Do When Someone Does Not Follow A Court Order?

Violating a court order is illegal. They can face civil and criminal penalties if they have not paid their child support or followed through with a divorce decree judgment. Whitney D. Mauk is a skilled litigator. She can help you solve issues of contempt through the court.
