FAQs
The answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
What is a postnuptial agreement?
A postnuptial agreement is a legal contract created after marriage, outlining how assets, finances, and responsibilities will be divided in the event of a separation or divorce. It helps protect individual and joint assets and ensures clarity in financial matters.
Are postnuptial agreements legally binding in Scotland?
Yes, postnuptial agreements are legally binding in Scotland, provided both parties have fully disclosed their financial circumstances and the agreement is deemed fair by the court. At TC Young, we ensure that your postnuptial agreement is drafted correctly to minimise the risk of it being challenged.
Why might I need a postnuptial agreement?
You may wish to create a postnuptial agreement to protect significant assets such as property, business interests, or inheritance. Additionally, if your financial situation changes during the marriage, a postnuptial agreement can help ensure that both parties are protected in case of future separation.
Can a postnuptial agreement be challenged in court?
Yes, a postnuptial agreement can be challenged in court if it is found to be unfair, or if one party was coerced into signing it. That’s why it’s crucial to work with an experienced lawyer from TC Young to ensure the agreement is legally sound and fair to both parties.
