Pre-Nuptial & Post Nuptial Agreements in Westlake Village

An Attorney can Help Create Comprehensive Nuptial Agreements

There are many preparations involved in a wedding, and one of the legal aspects includes putting together a pre-nuptial agreement. Although it may not seem like the most romantic document to draft while you're happily awaiting marriage, it may actually provide both parties with a sense of security.

Whether or not you have any active concerns about financial issues or stability, I can help you to make the process as simple as possible. Pre-nuptials are especially advisable if one or both parties have financially successful careers. As an experienced Westlake Village family lawyer at the Law Offices of Jeffrey S. Graff, I am dedicated to providing my clients with sound legal advice and well-developed legal strategies.

A pre-nuptial agreement should have all of the necessary provisions, including:

  • How to divide up property which each spouse owned previously
  • How to divide property that was acquired during the marriage
  • Which party (if any) will be entitled to alimony or spousal support if the marriage ends
  • What will happen to the estate and assets if either spouse were to pass away
  • How the attorney fees would be paid if the marriage ends or if the spouses are legally separated

If you have already gotten married and would like to put together a post-nuptial agreement, I would be happy to assist you. With my knowledge and expertise, it does not have to be a tedious process. With more than 35 years of experience, I have helped many couples put together post-nuptial agreements which are thorough and cover all the necessary bases.
