What is the purpose of a prenuptial agreement?

A prenuptial agreement is a contract formed between two individuals that are planning to get married. The agreement outlines the couple's plans for handling their finances, debts, and property—both during their marriage and if they divorce. Once the individuals marry, the agreement will go into effect.

Prenuptial agreements may cover any of the following:

  • What will happen to the spouses' property in the event of divorce, separation, death, etc.
  • The rights and duties of the spouses regarding the property owned by either or both of them
  • The spouses' rights to sell, use, transfer, mortgage, and manage property
  • The amount and duration of payments if spousal support is granted
  • If the spouses are required to make a will to follow through with the terms of the agreement
  • Who will receive death benefits from each spouse's life insurance policy
  • What will occur if there is a dispute involving the agreement

While many people view the concept of creating prenuptial agreements in a negative way, these agreements have actually become more popular throughout recent years. Although many people see prenuptial agreements as something used for the wealthy only, this is not the case today.

In fact, the number of middle-income couples that take advantage of prenuptial agreements is continuing to increase. While no one goes into a marriage with the intention of getting divorced, it does happen to many. Having formed a prenuptial agreement could help ensure that your assets will be divided how you wish if you do divorce.

Amending an Existing Prenuptial Agreement

Any time after a couple is married, they have the option of amending or revoking their changes in writing. Two factors that a prenuptial does not cover are the terms of child custody and child support. Rather, the court will determine custody and support arrangements, based on what is in the best interest of the children.

Idaho utilizes the Uniform Prenuptial Agreement Act (UPAA), which is a standard set of rules used to decide if a prenuptial agreement is enforceable. The agreement must be in writing, and signed by both spouses. Both spouses must also be capable of signing the agreement—meaning neither spouses are minors, mentally ill, or mentally disabled. If any of the rules are broken, the agreement will typically be unenforceable.
