Can You Get a Prenup After Marriage?

Yes, you can get a prenup after marriage. It's called a postnuptial agreement, and it can be established at any point during your marriage, whether it's been a few weeks or several years. A postnup is similar to a prenup in that it outlines how assets will be divided in the event of a divorce or separation.

What Is a Postnuptial Agreement?

A postnuptial agreement, also called a postnup or postmarital agreement is a legal contract that is entered into by a married couple after they have tied the knot. A postnup sets out the terms and conditions of property division and spousal support in the event of divorce or death. The purpose of a postnuptial agreement is to provide a plan for the financial aspects of the marriage. Otherwise, the couple would be subject to California’s default property division rules upon the death of a spouse or a divorce.
