Prenuptial Agreement FAQs

When should we start the prenup process?
Begin at least 2-3 months before your wedding. New York courts may invalidate prenups signed too close to the wedding date, as it suggests coercion. Both parties need time for review and independent legal counsel.
Does my fiancΓ© need their own lawyer?
Yes, for the prenup to be enforceable in New York, both parties should have independent legal representation. This prevents claims of coercion or inadequate representation and strengthens the agreement's validity.
Can prenups cover child custody and support?
No, New York courts will not enforce prenup provisions about child custody or child support. These decisions must always be made based on the child's best interests at the time of separation or divorce.
What makes a prenup invalid in New York?
Prenups can be invalidated due to lack of full financial disclosure, coercion, unconscionability, lack of independent counsel, or procedural defects. We ensure your agreement meets all legal requirements for enforceability.
