Minnesota Marriage Related Agreements

Couples use ante-nuptial (pre-nuptial) and post-nuptial agreements to predetermine terms for spousal support and division of property in the event the parties divorce. A well crafted prenuptial agreement can serve to educate both parties as to the assets and debts coming into a marriage, preserve substantial premarital property to each spouse and pave the way for a quick resolution should the parties divorce.

Co-habitation agreements are designed for unmarried couples who choose to reside together. Unmarried couples do not have the same automatic property protections as do married couples. Co-habitation agreements are especially important for those people considering purchasing real estate or investing in other substantial assets. Consult with our attorneys before taking such a step in your relationship.
