Pre-nuptial agreements in Texas
are enforced during a marriage and during/after a divorce. Things that can be in a pre-nuptial agreement
include how property is to be maintained and kept during and after a marriage,
the rights of both sides to buy or sell property, and to otherwise manage
it. Also included can be information
pertaining to how property would be split if there were to be a divorce, and
along those same lines, what kind of spousal support would be granted. Wills and life insurance benefits can also be
addressed, as well as how the pre-nuptial agreement is structured.
Almost anything can be covered in a pre-nuptial agreement,
as long as it is within the law. Children must also be cared for in a pre-nuptial, and if splitting property
would hurt any children, then a prenuptial agreement may not be enforced. Once you are married, a pre-nuptial agreement
can be changed, but only in writing and only if agreed upon by both parties.
