Texas Premarital and Postnuptial Agreements Attorney

Premarital agreements allow a person about to marry to preserve and protect the person’s separate property estate. The premarital agreement can change the normal rules of law involving community property and separate property in Texas. For example, during a marriage, income from separate property is community property. A prenuptial agreement can state that income from separate property during a marriage is separate property.

A premarital agreement determines the characterization of property at the time of divorce or time of death. When a person’s separate property is co-mingled with community property, the separate property can become community property.  Premarital and postnuptial agreements preserve a person’s separate property estate and help keep it separate.

Though most premarital and postnuptial agreements are mainly concerned with complex property issues, they can set boundaries on many other issues in a marriage. Premarital and postnuptial agreements can involve:

• wills and trusts
• rights to control property during the marriage
• Dividing retirement and employee benefits
• Homestead rights
