Prenuptial Agreements


Pittsburgh Lawyer

A Prenuptial Agreement is a means by which individuals who intend to marry may alter their legal rights and obligations during the marriage and/or upon divorce. These agreements typically concern financial issues such as support and property division. A prenuptial agreement must satisfy all of the usual requirements for validity of a contract.

In Pennsylvania, prenuptial agreements are presumed by the courts to be valid, though they may be challenged under certain circumstances. The agreement will be held valid if it either:

- makes reasonable provision for the spouse; or

- if the agreement is entered into after full and fair disclosure.
