Prenuptial Agreement Lawyer in Newton
People across a broad spectrum of age and economic circumstances have important reasons to consider creating prenuptial agreements when they marry (or remarry). A couple may also determine at some point during their marriage that a postnuptial agreement is necessary, often due to heightened concern about possible divorce or various financial developments.
Drafting Marital Agreements Is A Clear Strength At Our Boston-Area Firm
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements — marital agreements commonly called "prenups” and “postnups" — are both recognized under Massachusetts law, but experienced legal counsel is essential for ensuring they are drafted properly and enforceable if challenged. While specific factors vary widely, their primary purpose is to establish how property and assets will be divided if the marriage ends in divorce.
