Postnuptial Agreement Attorneys In Boca Raton

Most people who wish they had a prenuptial agreement think it’s too late after the vows are spoken, but it is not. You can still get an agreement in place to secure your future if you take the right steps.

At Weiner & Weiss, LLC, we’ve built a respected profile as family law and postnuptial agreement attorneys in Boca Raton. Our clients trust us because we’ve got 60 years of combined experience and a personable, compassionate service philosophy. We support you legally and emotionally through the most charged and disruptive of issues.

The Reason To Get A Postnuptial Agreement

A postnuptial agreement is very similar to a prenuptial agreement, only it happens after the marriage has already occurred. While the major reasons to get a postnuptial agreement are similar to prenups (desire for security, protection of major assets), there are additional scenarios that can come into play.

  • Changing financial situations: If either you or your spouse comes into a windfall of any sort, a postnuptial agreement can help manage any fear over potential asset division in the future.
  • Debt considerations: If one person takes on debt in a divorce, the other could potentially be saddled with it after divorce. A postnuptial agreement after a risky debt proposition makes a considerable amount of sense.
  • Changes in family dynamics: The birth of children, adoption or even taking in the children of a relative can obviously change what you might expect if the marriage were to end.

In all of these situations, we offer the practical tools to protect both sides’ interests, clarifying asset division, debt responsibility and potential spousal support.

The Legal Process Of A Postnup

Legally, a prenup and postnuptial agreement are functionally identical, and that also means their needs are the same as well. The main facts to remember are these:

  • Postnuptial agreements must be written and signed by both parties; oral agreements will not work.
  • Postnuptial agreements cannot impact the spousal support or custody of children.
  • Postnuptial agreements can govern almost any other aspect of the marriage, as long as they comply with the law.

A postnuptial agreement can accomplish many goals, but the most important thing you can get out of your postnuptial agreement is peace of mind.
