New Jersey Premarital and Postnuptial Agreements

A Premarital or Prenuptial Agreement is a contract entered into by parties before marriage that defines what will happen when the marriage ends, either by dissolution or the death of one of the parties. A Postnuptial Agreement is an agreement that spouses may enter into after they are married in circumstances where they choose to remain married but want to divide their assets in the event of the dissolution of the marriage or death of either party.  Parties contemplating these agreements need lawyers who understand the balance necessary for the marriage to occur or be preserved when negotiating for the financial results the parties seek to achieve.  Schibell Mennie & Kentos has experience in dealing with the fine line between negotiating a favorable Agreement while preserving the parties’ relationship.
