Prenuptial Agreements

Plan Smart. Protect Your Future. Strengthen Your Relationship.

Marriage is built on love and trust—but a strong legal foundation can help it thrive. At Vakil Family Law Solutions, we help couples create thoughtful, enforceable prenuptial agreements that clarify expectations, protect assets, and reduce the risk of future conflict.

A prenup isn’t about planning for divorce—it’s about entering marriage with clarity, security, and honesty.

What Is a Prenuptial Agreement?

A prenuptial agreement (also called a “prenup”) is a contract made between two people before they get married. It outlines how assets, debts, and financial issues will be handled during the marriage and in the event of divorce or death.

In Georgia, a valid prenup can cover:

• Division of assets and property
• Responsibility for debts
• Business ownership and interests
• Spousal support or alimony
• Inheritance and estate planning issues
• Protection for children from previous relationships

Who Should Consider a Prenup?

Prenuptial agreements are not just for the wealthy. You should consider one if:

• You own a business or professional practice
• You have children from a prior relationship
• You have significant assets or debts
• You want to protect an inheritance
• You want to clarify financial responsibilities before marriage

A prenup offers both partners peace of mind and can help avoid misunderstandings down the road.

Is a Prenuptial Agreement Enforceable in Georgia?

Yes—but only if certain legal requirements are met. A prenuptial agreement is enforceable in Georgia if:

• Both parties entered into it voluntarily
• There was full financial disclosure
• It was fair and reasonable at the time of signing
• The agreement was not obtained through fraud, duress, or coercion

This is why working with a knowledgeable family law attorney is essential.

Post Nuptial Agreements

Protect What Matters—Even After You Say “I Do”

Marriage evolves—and sometimes so do your financial needs. Whether you’re navigating new circumstances, building a business, or simply seeking peace of mind, a postnuptial agreement can help bring clarity and stability to your relationship.

At Vakil Family Law Solutions, we help married couples craft clear, enforceable postnuptial agreements that protect assets, define responsibilities, and strengthen their legal and financial future together.

What Is a Postnuptial Agreement?

A postnuptial agreement (postnup) is a legal contract created after a couple is already married. Like a prenuptial agreement, it addresses how assets, debts, income, and property would be managed in the event of divorce, separation, or death.

In Georgia, a postnup can address:

• Division of marital and separate property
• Business or professional asset protection
• Spousal support or alimony terms
• Debt allocation
• Inheritance or estate planning intentions

Unlike a prenup, a postnup responds to changes that occur during marriage, offering a chance to clarify or revisit earlier financial understandings.

Why Do Couples Enter Postnuptial Agreements?

There are many reasons couples might choose a postnup, including:

• One spouse receives a large inheritance
• A business has grown significantly
• There has been infidelity or a breach of trust, and a postnup offers a way to rebuild the relationship
• A blended family needs to protect children from a prior marriage
• The couple did not sign a prenup, but now wish to formalize expectations

Postnups can help couples avoid financial disputes and focus on the future, not on uncertainty.

Are Postnuptial Agreements Enforceable in Georgia?

Yes—but courts closely examine them. To be enforceable in Georgia, a postnup must:

• Be entered into voluntarily by both spouses
• Include full financial disclosure
• Be fair and reasonable at the time it’s signed
• Not be the product of fraud, coercion, or duress

Because the agreement is made during the marriage (when spouses owe each other fiduciary duties), courts may scrutinize the terms more than with a prenup. That’s why skilled legal drafting is crucial.

Why Choose Vakil Family Law Solutions?

Postnups require trust, communication, and care. At Vakil Family Law Solutions, we help couples:

• Create customized agreements tailored to their needs
• Ensure all financial disclosures are complete and accurate
• Negotiate terms respectfully and productively
• Review and explain any proposed agreement from a spouse

Whether you’re strengthening your relationship or protecting what you’ve built, our team ensures your rights are protected and your intentions are clearly documented.

Plan for Peace of Mind—Together

A postnuptial agreement is a proactive step—not a sign of mistrust. It’s a way to make important decisions together, now, so they don’t become legal battles later.
