Minnesota Family Lawyers Preserving Your InterestsCrafting Prenuptial and Post-Nuptial Agreements to Suit Your Needs Contrary to common belief, a prenuptial agreement is not only for the wealthy. Every couple and every family has unique circumstances. Some couples enter into marriage well established, with significant assets or family business interests. Some families are made up of children from different marriages. Other families have special circumstances, such as a special needs child. Whatever your circumstance, the family law attorneys of Gerten and Van Valkenburg, PA can help you ensure your interests and rights are protected regardless what the future brings. Whether you are entering into marriage or have already married, it is important to consider how a prenuptial agreement may benefit you and your family. If you would like to discuss your questions with an experienced attorney, contact our family law firm in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area. Creating an Effective Prenuptial Agreement Also known as an antenuptial agreement or premarital agreement, a prenuptial agreement is a voluntary agreement established prior to marriage. An effective prenuptial agreement will address difficult issues, such as property distribution, spousal support, inheritance rights, and other matters that will arise should the relationship end. Our Twin Cities attorneys work to help clients create an agreement that meets their unique needs. We listen. In your initial consultation, we learn more about the uniqueness of your family and the circumstances involved. We hope that your prenuptial agreement will never be needed. However, we ensure that all requirements are met, such as full disclosure, so that the agreement will be upheld should it ever come into effect. We are also capable of drafting effective post-nuptial agreements for couples who have already married.

Rather, opening the lines of communication can only strengthen your relationship and ensure that you both are secure. Gerten and Van Valkenburg, PA 303 E.
