Marital and Pre-Marital Agreements

Protect Yourself with a Marital and Pre-Nuptial Agreement

In order to avoid the cost and time associated with divorce litigation, hire an attorney to draft a marital and pre-marital agreement, also called a prenuptial agreement. A pre-marital agreement does not have to be viewed as a tool to plan a divorce. Rather, these documents can help avoid financial misunderstandings that often lead to marital disputes. To learn more about pre-marital and marital agreements, call the Santa Clara, California, Law Office of Daniel Jensen at (408) 556-9276 or (866) 491-1667. We represent people seeking to define their financial agreements with their spouses throughout Silicon Valley and San Jose.

San Jose Divorces and Marital Agreements

Before undertaking costly litigation to end your marriage, speak to one of our San Jose family law attorneys to draft a marital agreement you reached with your spouse, perhaps as a result of mediation. We will review agreements reached during mediation even where we were not involved. To ensure your interests are protected, it is wise to have one of our attorneys review your marital agreement. Marital agreements, or stipulated judgments, can relate to custody, support, property distribution, and other aspects of a divorce.

San Jose Pre-marital and Prenuptial Agreement

Another way to reduce the potential cost and time associated with a divorce is to consider having our lawyers to draft a prenup agreement. These agreements address issues concerning a spouse's property, custody, support, and other related matters. Prenuptials also attempt to avoid the affects of California community property laws, where marital property is divided equally upon divorce.

Avoid the ambiguities and risks associated with using a form agreement. These agreements, while convenient, often are often subject to questionable interpretations upon divorce. Our lawyers will draft and review a prenuptial contract specifically tailored for your needs.
