San Antonio Prenuptial Agreement Attorney
Texas Postnuptial Agreements Lawyer
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are a practical way to set out each party's rights and responsibilities. Prenuptial agreements are particularly useful in second or subsequent marriages, or when one or both parties have children or own substantial assets. In order for a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement to be enforceable in court, it must meet a number of specific legal requirements. The attorneys of Efron & Efron, Inc., have prepared many prenuptial and postnuptial agreements since our firm's founding in 1971. We can help you prepare an agreement that will clearly outline your rights and will hold up to any later legal challenges.
The main goal of any prenuptial or postnuptial agreement is to define each party's separate property and what is to be considered community property. In the case of divorce, separate property will not be included in the final property division. Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements can also waive a party's rights to certain property. Prenuptial agreements cannot impact child custody or child support issues. Before we draft a prenuptial agreement, we will take the time to fully understand your goals in order to create an agreement that meets your needs.
Crafting Agreements That Will Be Enforceable in Court
Under Texas law, a prenuptial agreement must meet a number of specific legal requirements. First, each party must fully disclose all of their assets. Further, each party must voluntarily enter into the agreement without fraud or duress. In Texas, a prenuptial agreement must contain specific language in order to be enforceable. It is not mandatory, but we strongly encourage each spouse in a prenuptial agreement to retain his and her own lawyer.
