Pre-Nuptial Agreements

Under Pennsylvania law, prenuptial agreements are presumed to be valid.  Once entered, they are very hard to over turn, so long as a full and fair financial disclosure of assets has been made at the time the agreement is entered.  Before you sign a premarital agreement, you should have the document reviewed by an experienced attorney.

The most important aspect of a prenuptial agreement in Pennsylvania is the full and fair disclosure of assets.  There is no requirement under the law that a prenuptial agreement be either fair or reasonable.  Ciccarelli Lawyers will work with you to create or review a prenuptial agreement and advise you of its implications.

If your future spouse has presented you with a prenuptial agreement, I encourage you to have an experienced lawyer review it.  If you are interested in presenting a prenuptial agreement to your future spouse, Ciccarelli Lawyers can prepare it according to your goals, which could include division of assets, division of debts, and other financial planning goals.

Learn more about a prenuptial agreement (”prenup”) in Pennsylvania by sitting down and discuss your rights and options with Pennsylvania divorce lawyer Joshua Janis.  Contact us by email or telephone 24/7.  We are divorce lawyers based in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, with main locations in Kennett Square and West Chester,  serving Chester County, Delaware County, Lancaster County and Montgomery County.
