Prenuptial Agreement Attorneys In Boca Raton

A prenuptial agreement is an agreement between two people intending to marry. You don’t have to be super wealthy. You don’t have to be worried about the marriage in any way. It’s a document that will protect you after you say your vows. It’s a small agreement about the much bigger agreement you’re about to make.

At Weiner & Weiss, LLC, we are prenuptial agreement attorneys with over 60 years of combined experience for people in Boca Raton. As family law attorneys, we’ve seen the highly charged, messy outcomes of divorce on the small and large scale. We’ve seen our clients struggle through a host of very real, very painful challenges. And we want to help you stay in control of your future, no matter what it brings.

The Benefits Of A Prenuptial Agreement

If you are thinking about a prenuptial agreement, you likely already have a good idea of what the major benefits are, including:

  • Financial security in the event of divorce
  • Personal assurance of the future

But those are just the benefits of a prenuptial agreement (prenup) on paper. A prenuptial agreement is one of those rare types of legal concepts that does far more than it appears to on the surface.

A prenuptial agreement is one that both sides must have considerable input into, and as such, many essential discussions are had while crafting one. Many of our clients find themselves talking about certain things for the first time, including:

  • Retirement goals: Are you planning to focus on working hard and saving for retirement? Are you planning to be more casual about saving goals? Is there a financial plan in place?
  • Family size: How many children do you want? Are you and your fiancée or fiancé in total agreement about children?
  • Residence: Do you plan to or wish to move at some point in the future? Do you want to stay put?

These are a few small questions that get answered. But overall, our clients find the clarity and thoughtful consideration that go into crafting a prenup to be major benefits. In fact, many of our prenup clients find themselves much closer afterward.

What Goes Into A Prenuptial Agreement

The discussion and relief that you may find in a prenup are only half of the equation. The other half is the work and information that you put into it. Your prenuptial agreement must be a faithful account of both parties’ financial situations, from personal property to potential inheritance and anything in between.

Additionally, you and your soon-to-be spouse will have to come to a series of agreements about the life you will share. Those agreements will serve as the basis for the documents that we craft for you.

The Legal Process Of Prenups

At its core, a prenuptial agreement is a contract and will follow many similar laws for a contract under Florida law. However, there are several differences between a is a legal contract and a legal prenuptial agreement:

  • Prenuptial agreements must be written and signed by both parties; oral agreements do not count.
  • Prenuptial agreements can govern nearly all potential factors in a marriage, whereas a contract must have reasonable limits and conditions.
  • Prenuptial agreements cannot impact any potential child support agreement.

With our experience behind you, we can help you develop trust and legally secure your future in the face of business success, inheritance, infidelity and any other worry you have about marriage.
