Agreement

Many people are familiar with prenuptial agreements; however, postnuptial agreements do not typically receive as much attention as premarital agreements. A postnuptial agreement accomplishes the same goals as a prenuptial agreement, but the agreement is signed after the couple is married.
A postnuptial agreement can settle the same matters that a premarital agreement can address, including but not limited to issues related to:

• Alimony or spousal support
• Division of assets and debts
• Child custody, support, and timesharing
• Define non-marital assets and debts
• Living situations during a separation
• Agreements concerning property and other matters upon the death of either spouse
• Death benefits from life insurance policies

It should be noted that agreements regarding child support, parenting plans, and child custody are subject to review by the court. The court will consider the terms in a postnuptial agreement related to children; however, the best interest of the child will be the deciding factor whether the terms in the marital agreement are enforceable.
