Prenuptial agreements are not just for the wealthy. They are helpful for any couple who wishes to properly plan ahead and have security throughout their marriage. Prenuptial agreements cover various aspects of what will happen during the course of a marriage and in the event of a divorce. This includes:
Outlining what is considered “separate” property obtained prior to a marriage
How assets obtained during the course of a marriage will be classified
The division of any marital property in the event of a divorce
Matters involving debt or creditors during a marriage and in the event of a divorce
Benefits, inheritances, and trusts that children from any prior marriage may claim
Spousal maintenance (alimony) arrangements
Prenuptial agreements are highly customizable documents designed to fit the specific needs of each couple. However, child support payments are governed by the state of California and cannot be determined by a prenuptial agreement.
