Rhode Island Pre-Nuptial and Post-Nuptial Agreement Attorney

Under the law, marriage is a contract. Pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements are simply additional provisions allowed by Rhode Island law and designed to protect the people involved. Rather than let the state determine the terms of your marriage, you can use a pre- or post-marital agreement to define your marriage on your own terms. At Howe Law Offices we believe that you need to plan for the worst and hope for the best.

The primary event to plan for in a pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreement is a possible divorce. Divorce is never a pleasant subject, but it is unfortunate reality of our society and needs to be accounted for. Our lawyers can sensitively and carefully craft an agreement that helps ensure that you and any children will be provided for, no matter what happens. If this is not your first marriage, it is all the more important to document arrangements for the care of any children from earlier marriages.

It is also important to protect assets in a pre- or post-nuptial agreement. In the event of a divorce, you will need your assets that were accumulated before the divorce carefully spelled out in writing. You also might want to decide now what an eventual asset division would be like. Again, it is not easy to broach such subjects, but our lawyers have years of experience working through such issues sensitively and compassionately.
