Orange County Prenuptial Agreement Lawyers
When it comes to marital agreements such as prenuptial agreements, there is a certain stigma. Many feel that even discussing these types of agreements will take the romance out of their love life.
The truth is that having these agreements in place can protect you in the long run. In fact, in the past few years, these agreements have grown in popularity because of the state of the economy, as well as the development of these agreements themselves.
At Sarieh Law Offices, we have successfully helped many couples in the past draft and enforce prenuptial agreements. Here are some of the most common questions we have received in the past:
- What does a prenuptial agreement do?
- How can a prenuptial agreement lawyer help me?
- Do I need to have a prenup in place?
What Does A Prenuptial Do?
A prenuptial agreement, also known as a prenup, is a contract that is drafted before being married (in contrast to postnuptial agreements, also known as postnups, are drafted after a couple has been married). In these agreements, you will draft what will happen in the event of a divorce, including what will happen to your property and if alimony will need to be paid.
Most people think that only those who are wealthy should have these agreements in place, but that is far from the truth. In fact, these marital agreements can protect couples in all tax brackets, and it is ideal to have one in place to protect the best interest of both partners in the union.
How Can A Prenuptial Agreement Lawyer Help Me?
When you work with Sarieh Law Offices, we will work diligently to ensure that our clients are financially secure, and their best interests are considered should a divorce occur. Not only will we negotiate on your behalf, but we will also negotiate with your partner’s lawyer to reach the best agreement possible.
Do I Need To Have A Prenup In Place?
Due to the complex natures of divorces, have a prenuptial agreement in place will ease the legal process. If a couple is going through a divorce and a marital agreement isn’t in place, the courts will have the ability to decide how your assets will be divided and if anyone can receive alimony.
Any assets or debts that were acquired during the marriage are going to be divided equally between the former spouses and most couples will have trouble deciding who gets what. Without a marital agreement in place, this will increase not only the time it takes to finalize the divorce but the costs associated with the divorce as well.
