What You Can Do with a Prenuptial Agreement

I thought a brief outline of what goes into a prenuptial agreement might be of use. For more specific articles, please click on "prenuptial agreements" below next to label. If you are an Indiana resident and want an attorney to help you with a prenuptial agreement, please feel free to contact me.

Determine your rights to (what goes in):

(A) buy;
(B) sell;
(C) use;
(D) exchange;
(E) abandon;
(F) lease;
(G) consume;
(H) expend;
(I) assign;
(J) create a security interest in;
(K) mortgage;
(L) encumber;

property.

The modification or elimination of spousal maintenance.

The ownership rights in and disposition of a death benefit from a life insurance policy.
The disposition of property upon:
(A) legal separation;
(B) dissolution of marriage;

The making of:
(A) a will;
