Making Smart Decisions About the Future of Your Relationship
People enter into the covenant of marriage hoping it will last forever, but the unfortunate reality is that about half of marriages end in divorce.
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are documents that can be drafted to protect spouses' interests. Choosing to enter into these agreements is a smart and prudent decision for many couples, whether they are planning for the future or have experienced an event that changed the nature of the marriage relationship.
At Ami L. DiLorenzo, P.A., in Ocala, Florida, we draft prenuptial and postnuptial agreements for our clients. With significant litigation experience, we can also represent people in conflicts related to an existing document.
Prenuptial Agreements
Our law firm prepares prenuptial agreements for people throughout Florida. Our clients include individuals with substantial wealth as well as people in their twenties who — relatively speaking — have fewer assets than their older counterparts.
Regardless of the nature of your personal financial situation, a prenuptial agreement may help protect your interests. More than just addressing wealth, today's prenuptial agreements also address debts and which party will be responsible for them upon death or divorce. Agreements also can be drafted to protect premarital property.

Postnuptial Agreements
Each married couple is unique, and the commitments the partners have made to each other hold unique meaning. For some, this meaning is religious. For others, it is a practical commitment to stay together for financial reasons or for the good of the children.
If you value the commitment you made to your spouse, but have hit a roadblock in your marriage, you do have options. A postnuptial agreement can be an excellent way to save your marriage —an alternative to divorce that helps protect your property and your interests.
At Ami L. DiLorenzo, P.A., we often draft postnuptial agreements for married couples. These agreements (often called postnuptial settlements) are contracts entered into after the marriage that define each spouse's property rights in the event of death or divorce.
