Marital Agreements

Some couples seek a marital agreement before or during marriage. This often occurs if one or both parties enter the marriage with significant assets (such as investments or retirement accounts).

In the event that a high-asset marriage becomes a high-asset divorce, marital agreements are an excellent way to maintain civility, achieve resolution, and establish each person’s property and financial rights during the legal proceedings.

As is the case with any legal document, marital agreements must adhere to certain legal guidelines and formalities, and include key statutory advisements to be enforceable.
