What Makes a Prenup Valid in Florida?
If you’re considering a prenuptial agreement, it’s important to hire a seasoned attorney. They have the experience and knowledge to help you draft, review, and execute the agreement.
Florida law has specific requirements for validity, so having a legal team manage your case is essential. Florida has adopted the Uniform Premarital Agreement Act, outlining the necessary conditions for a valid prenup.
Here are some key requirements needed for a valid prenuptial agreement:
- Both parties should provide full financial disclosure,
- The agreement must be executed voluntarily by both parties free from any threats, duress, coercion, fraud, or other improper conduct,
- The agreement must not be unconscionable at the time of the execution, and
- The agreement must be in writing, signed by the parties.
What Can’t Be Included in a Prenup?
Prenuptial agreements set guidelines for if a marriage dissolves or if a party dies during the marriage but they cannot address child-related matters such as support, custody arrangements, and time-sharing arrangements. Understanding these restrictions is crucial when creating such agreements. Our Miami-based prenuptial agreement attorneys can assist in ensuring the validity of your prenup.
