Grand Rapids Postnuptial Agreement Lawyer

Protect Your Future with a Postnuptial Agreement

Have you recently gotten married or are you planning to tie the knot soon? If so, you may want to consider the benefits of a postnuptial agreement. A postnuptial agreement is a contract entered into by a couple after they have gotten married that details how assets will be divided in the event of a divorce.

A postnuptial agreement allows you to plan for the future and protect your financial interests in the event of a divorce. It is important to note that Michigan law only recognizes postnuptial agreements if the couple is already married. If you are planning to get married, you should definitely consult with a lawyer about a prenuptial agreement.
