Pre-Nuptial/Post-Nuptial Agreements
Protecting Your Assets and Future
Pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements are legal documents that define the financial and property rights of each spouse in the event of divorce or death. These agreements provide clarity and protection, allowing couples to plan for potential future scenarios while maintaining control over their assets. Miami-Dade and Broward family law attorney, Aileen Siclait, Esq., has vast experience serving families and helping them navigate the difficult process of a divorce.

Pre-Nuptial Agreements
A pre-nuptial agreement, often referred to as a prenup, is executed before marriage and outlines how assets and debts will be divided in the event of divorce or death. Key aspects of pre-nuptial agreements include:
Asset Protection: Protecting pre-marital assets, inheritances, and business interests from division in a divorce.
Debt Division: Specifying responsibility for pre-existing debts incurred by each spouse.
Spousal Support: Waiving or limiting spousal support obligations in the event of divorce.
Estate Planning: Addressing how assets will be distributed upon death, separate from state laws.
Post-Nuptial Agreements
A post-nuptial agreement is similar to a pre-nuptial agreement but is executed after marriage. Couples may choose to create a post-nuptial agreement to address changes in circumstances, such as:
Business Ventures: Defining ownership and control of new business ventures acquired during marriage.
Inheritance: Planning for unexpected inheritances or gifts received during marriage.
Financial Changes: Adjusting financial responsibilities and asset division preferences over time.
