Agreements

During the divorce process, both parties will typically need to complete many types of significant paperwork. Fortunately, at Koontz Law, Attorney Koontz is here to help you navigate any agreements required.

Types of Agreements

Each type of agreement Koontz Law can help with is outlined below:

Separation Agreements and Property Settlement Agreements

A separation agreement is a contract pursuant to which spouses agree to live separate and apart. Separation agreements can be executed at any time during separation but are not required. Property settlement agreements similarly provide for a division of the real estate, personal property, financial accounts and martial debts. Most often, separation and property settlement are addressed in the same agreement.

A few things to note about both types of agreements include:

Pre and Post Nuptial Agreements

A prenuptial or postnuptial agreement is a contract between two people contemplating marriage; whereas, a postnuptial agreement is a contract between tow people who are already married. In order to be a valid agreement, the contract must:

The parties can contract concerning property rights, rights to control and manage property, disposition of property upon separation or divorce, spousal support rights upon separation or divorce, ownership and disposition of life insurance benefits, and any other personal rights and obligations which are not in violation of public policy or the law.
