Understanding Prenuptial Agreements in New Jersey

A prenuptial agreement can be an effective planning tool for marriage. It may serve to protect an individual’s premarital interests and financial assets. In the event of a divorce, such interests designated as exempt under a pre-nuptial agreement, will not be subject to laws of equitable distribution.

A prenuptial agreement can also address other considerations, such as:

  • Support obligations
  • Asset values
  • Business interests
  • Investments

A variety of factors may be contemplated by a prenuptial agreement, including the duration of a marriage, children from prior relationships, inheritance, and a family owned business. In situations such as these, a prenuptial agreement can avoid protracted and expensive litigation in the event the marriage does not endure. In order for a pre-nuptial agreement to be enforceable, there must be complete and full financial disclosure, adequate time and opportunity to review with legal counsel from your lawyer, and it must be entered into voluntarily.
