Protect Your Future with a Customized Marital Agreement

Marriage is one of life's most important commitments, and thoughtful planning can provide financial clarity and peace of mind for both spouses. Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements allow couples to establish clear expectations regarding property, finances, and other important matters before future disputes arise.

At Dosh Law, we help individuals and couples throughout El Dorado County prepare, review, and negotiate prenuptial and postnuptial agreements that reflect their unique goals while complying with California law.

Whether you are preparing for marriage or wish to establish a financial agreement after marriage, our experienced attorneys provide trusted legal guidance every step of the way.

Understanding Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements

A marital agreement is a legally binding contract that outlines how certain financial matters will be handled during the marriage or in the event of divorce or death.

A prenuptial agreement is created before marriage, while a postnuptial agreement is entered into after the marriage has taken place.

Properly drafted agreements can provide certainty, minimize future disputes, and help couples make informed financial decisions.

Benefits of a Marital Agreement

A well-prepared agreement can address many important financial issues, including:

  • Protection of separate property
  • Division of marital assets
  • Business ownership interests
  • Real estate ownership
  • Debt allocation
  • Investment and retirement accounts
  • Inheritance rights
  • Financial responsibilities during marriage

Our attorneys prepare customized agreements that are tailored to each client's unique circumstances and long-term goals.

Prenuptial Agreements

Creating a prenuptial agreement before marriage allows couples to openly discuss financial expectations and protect assets acquired before the marriage.

A prenuptial agreement may be beneficial for individuals who:

  • Own a business
  • Have significant assets
  • Own real estate
  • Have children from a previous relationship
  • Expect future inheritances
  • Wish to protect family wealth
  • Want financial certainty before marriage

Our attorneys work closely with clients to prepare comprehensive agreements designed to withstand future legal scrutiny.

Postnuptial Agreements

Life circumstances often change after marriage. A postnuptial agreement allows spouses to establish or revise financial arrangements while remaining married.

Postnuptial agreements are commonly used when:

  • Financial circumstances change
  • One spouse starts a business
  • Significant assets are acquired
  • Estate planning goals evolve
  • Marital reconciliation occurs
  • Couples seek greater financial clarity

We help couples prepare fair and enforceable agreements that reflect their current needs and objectives.

If you have been presented with a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement, it is important to fully understand your legal rights before signing.

  • Reviewing proposed agreements
