Drafting prenuptial agreements

Anyone with substantial assets who is coming into a marriage should at least consult with an attorney about the possibility of entering into a prenuptial agreement before marriage. There is no risk in discussing a prenuptial agreement to determine whether it may be right for you. Our attorney will help review your income and assets and help create an agreement tailored to your family’s needs and interests.

Modifications of prenuptial agreements

If you have recently been asked to sign a prenuptial agreement prior to your marriage, it is important to have an independent attorney review the document to ensure that your rights are protected. We are experienced in representing clients who may require modifications to a prenuptial agreement before signing. Our attorney will take the time to review your rights and options and explain any consequences of a prenuptial agreement before you decide to sign.

Prenuptial agreements in second marriages or when one or both spouses have children

Second marriages or marriages later in life will often require a prenuptial agreement. When both spouses come into the marriage with significant assets or if either has children from a former marriage, it can be very critical to consult an attorney regarding the creation of a prenuptial agreement. In situations where there is a large disparity in income or assets, it also makes sense to have a prenup to take pressures off of others in the family who suspect that the new spouse is entering into a marriage for financial gain.

It costs nothing to learn how we can help. Contact Law Offices of H. William Edgar for a free consultation regarding a prenuptial agreement with an experienced lawyer at either our Riverside or Temecula offices.
