Society has changed greatly in recent years and one of the major changes is that more than half of the people married will ultimately seek a divorce. Many of these same people will remarry. The Andersons,
Dallas Texas divorce attorneys, have found that it is the second or third marriages where pre-nuptial or post- nuptial agreements are desired.
Pre-nuptial agreements can have the effect of changing the result of divorces or probate that otherwise occur under the community property laws of Texas. There are a myriad of terms and conditions that can be tailor made to each agreement. These may include personal income, retirement benefits, property, income from property, profit sharing and many others.
Marital agreements, also known as post-nuptial agreements are agreements entered into by both parties after they have become man and wife. There are numerous reasons why these agreements are sought. These agreements vary based on the client's needs. Each agreement is customized to meet a specific situation.
The best way to start a pre-nuptial agreement is to get the agreement finalized in two to three months, well in advance of the marriage date. They require that both parties are represented by
Dallas Attorneys and that a formal signing take place with parties and
Dallas lawyers present so that the agreement is executed in such a way that it cannot be overturned in the future.
Seldom is a pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreement challenged after having been properly executed. Thus, it is important for you and your
Dallas county lawyers to understand the agreement and ensure its preparation will withstand any future attack. The
Dallas attorneys with The Andersons have prepared many strong agreements for their clients.
