• Separate property: Identifying assets each person brings into the marriage that will remain separate.
• Division of marital property: Establishing how assets and debts acquired during the marriage will be divided.
• Alimony: Determining whether alimony will be paid, and if so, the amount and duration.
• Business interests: Addressing the management and ownership of businesses in the event of divorce.

What Makes A Prenuptial Agreement Enforceable In Georgia?

Prenuptial/postnuptial agreements are highly technical and must meet certain requirements in order to be enforceable. The Georgia prenuptial agreement lawyers at Tisdale Middleton & Land can advise you about the requirements.

Why Are Prenuptial Agreements Important?

Do Georgia Courts Recognize Postnuptial Agreements?

Georgia courts generally recognize postnuptial agreements, which are contracts entered into by spouses after marriage to address financial matters and property division in the event of divorce or death. While Georgia law does not explicitly address postnuptial agreements, courts have upheld them when they meet certain criteria.

It’s important to note that courts may scrutinize postnuptial agreements more closely than prenuptial agreements due to the existing marital relationship. Couples considering a postnuptial agreement should consult with experienced family law attorneys to ensure the agreement is properly drafted and likely to be upheld in court if challenged.
