What a Prenuptial Agreement Can Cover
A prenuptial agreement is a contract signed before marriage that can address how property and debts will be handled and, in many cases, whether either spouse may receive alimony. Couples often use these agreements to protect property owned before the marriage, a business, or an inheritance, and to add clarity for a second marriage or a blended family. Some matters, such as child support, generally cannot be decided in advance by a prenuptial agreement.
Making the Agreement Enforceable
For an agreement to hold up, Florida generally expects it to be entered voluntarily, with a fair and full disclosure of each party's finances, and without pressure. We help couples prepare agreements that meet these expectations, and we review agreements that another party has proposed so you understand what you are signing.
Prenuptial vs. Postnuptial Agreements
A prenuptial agreement is signed before the marriage; a postnuptial agreement is signed after the couple is already married. Both can address similar issues, and the right choice depends on your timing and goals. We help couples decide which fits their situation.
This is general information about Florida law, not legal advice. How these rules apply depends on the details of your situation. Talking with an attorney is the clearest way to understand what they mean for you.
