What is a Postnuptial Agreement?

A postnuptial agreement, often called a "postnup," is a legally binding contract established between spouses after marriage. Like a prenuptial agreement, a postnup outlines the division of assets and liabilities in case of a divorce or separation. After they have already tied the knot, postnuptial agreements allow couples to create a comprehensive financial plan.

What Does a Postnuptial Agreement Cover in New York?

In New York, a postnuptial agreement can address various matters pertinent to a couple's financial future. These agreements can cover the following aspects:

Asset Division: A postnup can outline how marital assets and debts will be divided in case of divorce or separation. This includes property, investments, business interests, and more.
Spousal Support: The agreement can establish terms for alimony or spousal support, indicating the amount and duration of payments, if applicable.
Inheritance and Estate Planning: Couples can use postnuptial agreements to clarify inheritance rights and establish how specific assets will be treated during one spouse's passing.
Debt Responsibility: A postnup can specify which spouse is responsible for certain debts acquired during the marriage, providing clarity and protection.
Financial Responsibilities: Couples can outline financial responsibilities during the marriage, including how joint accounts, bills, and expenses will be managed.
Protection of Family Wealth: If one spouse has substantial family wealth or assets, a postnuptial agreement can help protect those assets from being considered marital property.
