Financial Agreements can be entered into prior to, during or post a marriage or de facto relationship. Those entered into prior to a relationship or marriage are commonly referred to as “pre-nuptial agreements”. They are legal contracts with strict legislative requirements in order to be binding and operative. They set out how assets, finances, and liabilities will be divided in the event of a separation, providing clarity and protection for both parties.
At Tosh Colls Family Law we have extensive experience with drafting compliant ‘pre-nuptial style’ Financial Agreements. Contact us today to find out more.
In certain circumstances, it may be preferable to use a Financial Agreement to record property settlement and spousal maintenance matters following the breakdown of a relationship in lieu of Consent Orders. In fact, spousal maintenance obligations are only able to be extinguished via a post relationship Financial Agreement.
