Prenuptial agreements
Many couples wish to clarify their financial rights and responsibilities before marriage by the preparation of a prenuptial agreement. Washington is a community property state. The law presumes that all property acquired during marriage will be community property. That presumption can be changed, and separate property can be protected, by a prenuptial agreement. Each agreement is personal to the couple that enters into it. The agreement may be simple, or may be quite detailed. We draft prenuptial agreements and review those drafted by other attorneys.
