Premarital & Postmarital Agreements

Portland Premartial Agreement Lawyers

Pondering the possibility of divorce should not be a part of your wedding preparation. You need to be realistic, however, and protect your assets should your marriage end. The Portland premartial agreement lawyers at DeBast McFarland and Richardson help our clients draft detailed and enforceable premarital agreements.

Boilerplate forms may exist on the Internet, but if you have significant assets or debts, you need a seasoned family law attorney to draft a premarital agreement that can be enforced. For help, contact a Portland family law attorney at 503-297-9600.

Protecting What Belongs to You and Your Children

While some Oregon family lawy attorneys shy away from prenups and post-nuptial agreements, we will help clients protect what is theirs. Too many times, a divorce takes away more than it gives back. Valuable assets, including family-owned businesses and money set aside for kids from a previous marriage, are lost because a premarital agreement was not in place or not enforceable.

Customized Premarital Agreement Based on Your Situation

At DeBast McFarland and Richardson, we go beyond the templates and create a customized premarital agreement unique to your situation. No two are the same. We also counsel our clients on maintaining the agreement and not modifying it. All the good work we do can be undone with various side deals between two spouses who eventually divorce.

Before your wedding day approaches, you need to consider all things that could occur in your married life. That may include divorce, necessitating a premarital agreement. Do not just leave things to chance.
