Our extensive experience handling complex and contested divorce case gives us a unique insight into the issues that need to be addressed when drafting a premarital agreement. In order to protect yourself in the event of a divorce, or to prevent confusion regarding the distribution of your assets if you are entering into a mixed family, you should have a comprehensive premarital agreement.

If you are getting married for the second time and have children from a prior marriage, it is important that you protect your assets and their future assets to ensure your wishes are respected and your family is taken care of according to your wishes.

When drafting a prenuptial agreement, both parties must fully disclose all of their assets and both parties must also be represented by separate attorneys. In Connecticut, there is no such thing as a postnuptial agreement. If you intend to draft a marital agreement it must be done before the marriage.

If you are contemplating a divorce, or if divorce papers have already been filed, and there is a prenuptial agreement involved, a lawyer can help you sort through all of the issues. Attorney O'Connor has experience litigating prenuptial agreement issues on behalf of individuals going through a divorce.
