Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are essential legal tools to protect your assets, clarify financial expectations, and establish a clear framework for your marriage. These agreements are not only important for our clients’ financial security, but experience has also taught us that establishing a clear understanding at the outset of a marriage helps provide both parties with peace of mind as they embark on life’s journey together.

Comprehensive Agreement Services

Our prenuptial and postnuptial agreement services encompass a wide range of options tailored to your specific needs:

Asset Protection: SFL helps clients safeguard their assets and property interests by outlining clear terms for asset division in case of divorce or separation. This is essential to protect business ownership interests, professional practices, inheritance proceeds, and other hard-earned assets. Beyond dollars and cents, a proper asset protection strategy is essential to ensuring continuity and proper control of businesses and other assets.

Debt Management: from mortgages to student loans, couples often carry debt obligations into their marriage. SFL can help define responsibilities for existing debts and future financial obligations, ensuring transparency and fairness with regards to what sources of income may be used to repay those debts, who is responsible for those debts in the event of a dissolution of marriage, and other similar occurrences specific to clients’ circumstances.

Spousal Support: in any marriage, it is not uncommon for a spouse to take a step back from their business or professional ambitions to allocate more time to taking care of their family and household. While such responsibilities are essential to the family’s well-being - both financial and developmental - stepping back from the workforce is a substantial sacrifice from that spouse. SFL helps clients establish fair and reasonable spousal support terms to ensure that placing family first will not be a detriment in the future.

Modification and Enforcement

Life has many new beginnings and SFL recognizes that circumstances can change at any time. For that reason, SFL can assist clients in modifying prior agreements to reflect new facts and, in the event that an agreement is contested or violated, SFL works diligently to uphold and enforce its clients’ rights.
