Pre-nuptial and Post-nuptial Agreements
Couples getting married might want to record what happens if their relationship ends. They can do so by signing a pre-nuptial agreement.
Although not binding on the court, courts are taking them into account more and more when considering how finances should be distributed following the breakdown of the marriage.
A condition of a pre-nuptial agreement is that:
- it must be signed by both parties at least 2 months before the wedding
- both parties must have given full financial disclosure
- both parties enter it voluntarily
With busy wedding plans you might not have had time to deal with a pre-nuptial agreement before the wedding. It is possible to enter into a post-nuptial agreement recording your agreement should the relationship fail.
At Hart Brown our family lawyers can advise you on the merits of a pre or post-nuptial agreement and we can draft an agreement to record your intentions while making sure you comply with all the legal requirements.
To speak to someone who can help with your pre and post-nuptial agreements, call, email or request a call back from one of our specialist lawyers.
