Massapequa postnuptial agreement attorneys help married couples set new financial terms after a business launch, inheritance, or career change. Key Takeaways:
In 1997, New York's highest court refused to enforce a postnuptial agreement that both spouses had signed. Neither signature had been acknowledged before an authorized officer, and that single omission undid the entire agreement. Married couples sign a postnuptial agreement to update their financial terms after the wedding, and the agreement only does its job when every formality is handled correctly. For many married couples, the question starts with a single event: a business that grew, an inheritance from a parent, or a decision about who will stay home with the children.
