It's utilized to protect both parties’ interests, ensuring clear expectations and financial security. In Nassau County, prenuptial agreements must comply with state laws, requiring signatures from both parties and witnesses to be deemed valid. Beyond asset protection, prenuptial agreements can also define responsibilities and financial contributions during the marriage, creating a balanced approach to financial management tailored specifically for you and your partner. This agreement acts as both a testament to mutual trust and foresight, paving the way for a harmonious marriage.
