Jacksonville and St. Augustine Postnuptial Agreement Lawyer
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements do not promote divorce. Rather, these agreements provide peace of mind and offer directives for the possibility of divorce. Just because you have drafted a prenup does not mean you are planning to divorce your spouse. In fact, a prenuptial agreement can even provide directives for property division if one spouse dies.
The law office of Beth M. Terry, P.A., delivers aggressive legal services our clients need. If you need assistance drafting a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement, we can help.
Understanding the Types of Agreements: Prenuptial and Postnuptial
Our Jacksonville prenuptial agreement attorney drafts agreements that are entered into prior to marriage. Prenuptial agreements between future spouses outline their agreed upon rights regarding property division, spousal support, and other matters in the event of a divorce or death of one spouse.
As a St. Augustine postnuptial agreement attorney, Beth Terry drafts agreements that are entered into during marriage. The main difference between prenuptial agreements and postnuptial agreements is the time at which each type is established — before or during the marriage. Both provide directives for the event of divorce or death of a spouse.
Neither type of agreement can include binding decisions regarding child support or child custody as the courts must determine these issues in regard to the best interests of the child.

- Have been previously married
- Have amassed significant assets that will be kept separate from the marital property
