Prenuptial Agreement, El Dorado County Sacramento

Home / Prenuptial Agreement, El Dorado County Sacramento

A prenuptial agreement, also known as a prenup, is a legal document created by two individuals before they get married. It typically outlines how assets, debts, and other financial matters will be handled in the event of divorce or death. Prenups can also address other issues related to the marriage, such as spousal support and property distribution.

In El Dorado County and Sacramento, as in the rest of California, prenuptial agreements are governed by state law. It’s important to consult with a qualified attorney who is familiar with the specific laws and regulations in these areas, as family law can vary by location.

It is extremely important to retain a certified family law specialist when having a prenup drafted or reviewed as it requires significant understanding of the family code and the divorce process given that the prenup is to protect you in case of a divorce. Do not sell yourself short and have trouble down the road with an invalid or confusing prenup.

When creating a prenuptial agreement in El Dorado County or Sacramento, both parties should seek independent legal counsel to ensure that their rights and interests are protected. Additionally, full financial disclosure is typically required to make the agreement enforceable. It’s important to note that while prenuptial agreements can be valuable tools for protecting assets and establishing expectations, they are not always foolproof and can be challenged under certain circumstances. Therefore, it’s crucial to seek legal guidance to ensure that the agreement is properly drafted and executed.

Testimonials

She handled my complicated, high conflict custody battle like a pro!

I hired Maryam for my very high conflict and complicated custody battle. She took an emotional, dreadful, and exasperating experience, handled it with expertise, professionalism, and calmness that made it possible for me to be calm and believe that everything would work out. Everything did work out, and I’m SO THANKFUL for her. She’s sharp, smart, confident, and a fighter, all while being reasonable and not making a complicated situation worse. I would HIGHLY recommend her. The best experience I’ve ever had with an attorney. Not for one moment did I ever feel like I was just a paycheck to her, and she was worth every penny. Thank you Maryam, you were awesome!

Excellent and Aggressive Attorney!

Maryam was my divorce lawyer a few years ago. She is personable, punctual and got the job done… We got what we wanted in court as she fought hard for me and was aggressive. She filed all the paperwork that needed to be done on time and correctly. She was also very good at moral support in this tough period in my life but that was just a benefit of using her. I have also called her for legal advice a few times since and she always gave me good legal advice.

Attorney with compassion and conviction.

I really am not sure how I found Maryam originally, but I’m so glad that I did. My divorce and custody battle dragged out for over two years, but in the end I have full custody of my children and have been able to move on with my life. Divorce is emotionally difficult, but having Maryam navigate the legal waters made the whole situation easier. I highly recommend her if you need an attorney who will help you work through your family law matters with compassion and conviction.

I have had a few lawyers in the past 12 years and honestly lost faith in them until I met Maryam. She is absolutely AMAZING! She treats you like your family and makes sure she listens and answers all questions.  Her number one concern is what’s the best decision to be made during some hard times for families. Maryam is respectful of your feelings and helps you make the correct decision for you and your family.  I wish I would have found her years ago! This would have saved me lots grief and money.  She doesn’t want to take advantage of her clients by dragging things out, she gets the job done right and quick. I totally recommend her services to everyone and trust her to fight for my family always! Thank you Maryam for being honest, reliable, and taking care of my family!

A Guardian Angel

There has been no question. My child custody case has been the most trying, exhaustive and draining experience of my life. Apart from the light of my child, there has really been only one other bright spot to the whole experience. Maryam. I never (ever!) expected such compassion in hired legal counsel. Alternately, she has never sugar coated the situation and has been my leader, inspiration and true guide on a very complex and time consuming journey. She has put me to work, and the work has been hard. But her very matter-of-fact approach to why, and her ability to set the example and pace by working so incredibly hard herself, kept me going. As hard as this has all been, I can’t imagine how devastating it would have all felt without this very rare and special person making me feel like they are in my corner from a very genuine place. Words escape me to properly express my gratitude for the fact that lawyers like this really are out there, while rare to find. She’s never cut corners with her efforts and never lost patience with me during a very scattered and overwhelming time in my life. She has gone above and beyond for me, to the point of pleasant surprise which is something I so desperately needed going through this! We had a long, extensive child custody trial and she worked brilliantly both in and out of court to reach an outcome in our favor. Again, I’m at a loss to express my gratitude for her world class efforts so instead, I’ll recommend her from the most honest place in my heart.
