California Premarital Law
There have been many changes in the California premarital law over the last few years. These changes are important and you need a good lawyer at your side to be sure you have everything in order prior to your marriage.
At times, separate accounts acquired prior to your marriage can become commingled with community property acquired during the marriage. So it is unsafe to assume that just because you owned something before you were married, it will remain separate in a divorce proceeding. The San Jose divorce attorneys at Law Office of Daniel Jensen, P.C. are well versed in California pre-marital law. It is important to have a lawyer aware of such California laws to guide you in all of your financial affairs and warn you of future dealings that may hinder your case in a divorce situation.
San Jose Divorce Attorneys at The Law Office of Daniel Jensen, P.C. will help you understand your individual rights and needs in premarital agreements including the newest laws developed to protect both parties such as:
- Knowing how far in advance a pre-marital agreement must be in the hands of the other party before signing to avoid claims of being rushed into the agreement.
- The legalities of limiting spousal support in a pre-marital agreement and how those may not hold up in court during an actual divorce.
- Difficulties created if your pre-marital agreement was signed in another state while you currently reside in California.
- The possibility of unpredictable results due to conflicting state legislation regarding pre-marital contracts.
