Vermont Postnuptial Agreement: What Is It?

A Vermont Postnuptial Agreement is an arrangement formed between two married individuals that will act as a legal contract describing the way that a property will be divided if either spouse files for a divorce or a death occurs. This agreement will only apply to individuals that are married.

If either of the situations described above do occur, a court case will begin in which a judge will need to make a final decision on whether or not to enforce the conditions outlined in the document. In most cases, a judge will agree to enforce the conditions providing that all laws have been abided by. The laws concerning Postnuptial Agreements in Vermont are outlined below:

• There are no specific laws concerning signing requirements by two parties. However, we would recommend to document arrangements in a written agreement and have both partners sign it;
• No individual must be forced to sign the agreement;
• The court will heavily scrutinize the conditions of the document to ensure they are fair and genuine;
• Spouses need to show their total income and provide information about assets and properties.
