What is a Postnuptial Agreement?
A postnuptial agreement, often known as a postnup, is a legally binding contract by spouses after marriage. This agreement summarizes the division of assets, debts, and other financial aspects during a divorce or separation. While prenuptial agreements are created before marriage, postnuptial agreements serve the same purpose but are established during the marriage.
A postnuptial agreement can cover various aspects, including:
- Asset Division: Specifying how property and assets will be divided in case of divorce.
- Debt Allocation: Determining who is responsible for certain debts incurred during the marriage.
- Spousal Support: Establishing whether one spouse will pay spousal support to the other in case of divorce.
- Inheritance and Estate Planning: Addressing the distribution of inheritances and future assets.
- Business Ownership: Outlining how jointly-owned businesses or shares in businesses will be divided.
- Financial Responsibilities: Clarifying financial responsibilities during the marriage, such as savings and investments.
Do I Need a Postnuptial Agreement?
Deciding whether to create a postnuptial agreement is a personal choice and should be based on your circumstances and goals. Here are some reasons why individuals and couples choose to create postnuptial agreements:
- Asset Protection: If you have significant assets or anticipate an increase in wealth, a postnuptial agreement can protect your interests by determining how assets are divided in divorce.
- Debt Management: If one spouse has substantial debts, a postnup can help allocate responsibility for those debts, preventing the other spouse from being burdened with them after divorce.
- Business Interests: If you and your spouse own a business together, a postnuptial agreement can outline how ownership and control will be managed in case of divorce.
- Second Marriages: For individuals entering a second marriage, a postnuptial agreement can ensure that assets are protected for children from a previous marriage.
- Clarity and Communication: Postnuptial agreements can promote open and honest discussions about financial matters within a marriage, fostering better communication and understanding between spouses.
- Estate Planning: Postnuptial agreements can be an essential part of estate planning, ensuring that your assets are distributed according to your wishes.

Our daughter was in a nightmare situation where she had been falsely arrested and had her baby taken from her by her husband. We called Ben and he has had the charges dropped and her baby returned. She is still going through the divorce process but we couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer. He has delivered on everything he said he could do and we cannot thank him enough. If you need help he’s the man to hire. He knows the law better than the competition and he gets real results.- Bennett family
