Although not as common as a Prenup, a Post-Nuptial Agreement can accomplish the same thing as the Prenup, but without the nerves of an impending wedding. Many people
even do Postnups decades after their wedding day. We often recommend a Postnup as part of an estate plan when
community and separate property interests of a couple
need to be clarified.
A Postnup is helpful for defining a financial relationship
between spouses during marriage, on divorce or at death.
Issues covered in a Postnup can include what will
happen to separate assets of one spouse on divorce or at
death and establish debt or income as the separate property
of one spouse.
