PRENUPTIAL AND MARITAL PROPERTY AGREEMENTS
Texas Family Law Attorneys
Once thought of as controversial, prenuptial agreements are now seen as an effective tool used to protect individual parties in the future. Today, prenuptial and marital property agreements are used by couples in a first marriage as well as those in second marriages, who wish to designate property to specific parties.

About Prenuptial and Marital Property Agreements
At Currin, Wuest, Mielke, Paul & Knapp, P.L.L.C., we assist clients with the following:
| Prenuptial agreements |
| Postnuptial agreements |
| Marital property agreements |
| Partition agreements |
The goal of each of these documents is largely the same: to protect the individual interests of each spouse if the marriage terminates by death or divorce. A marital property agreement can address property division, spousal support (alimony), separate and community property, and more.
It is not enough just to have a marital property agreement. It must be drafted properly, and legally enforceable. Working with an attorney can ensure that your agreement is legally binding and accurately addresses your needs and concerns.
Second Marriages
A prenuptial or marital property agreement is especially useful in a second marriage. When spouses each have children from a previous marriage, a marital property agreement can designate and direct property to those children. Property can also be assigned to the new spouse. A property agreement can also be used to further protect the interests of children from previous marriages.
