PRE-NUPTIAL AGREEMENT

 Documents are prepared relating specifically to your case, an attorney explains the documents to you before you sign them.  Let my 30 years of experience work for you!

CALL ME FOR A FREE TELEPHONE CONFERENCE AT (630) 415-8705 OR COME IN FOR A FREE INITIAL OFFICE CONSULTATION TO MEET THE ATTORNEY AND DISCUSS WHAT SERVICES CAN BE PROVIDED AND THE FEE FOR SAID LEGAL SERVICES.  WHEN YOU CALL MY OFFICE YOU TALK TO ME (NOT A PARALEGAL OR SOMEONE JUST OUT OF LAW SCHOOL) AND WHEN YOU GO TO COURT I AM THERE WITH YOU - NOT ANOTHER ATTORNEY (POSSIBLY SOMEONE JUST OUT OF LAW SCHOOL WITH LITTLE OR NO EXPERIENCE). 

A pre-nuptial agreement is an agreement entered into between two parties contemplating marriage which discloses each party's assets and provides for the distribution of said assets and may address the issue of maintenance (alimony) if the parties should obtain a divorce at a later date.  A pre-nuptial agreement (of course) is executed prior to the marriage of the parties.  In order for a pre-nuptial agreement to be enforceable it is advisable that each party be represented by an attorney who will review the contract with his client and sign the agreement indicating that he has given the individual legal advice.  It is very likely that the court will not enforce a pre-nuptial agreement where one of the parties is not represented by an attorney at the time of its execution

Even if a pre-nuptial agreement provides for the waiver of maintenance (alimony) if the parties should divorce, the Court may find said provision unconscionable and award a spouse maintenance based upon the financial circumstances of the parties.  At least if there is a pre-nuptial agreement which provides that both parties are waiving maintenance (alimony) there is a very good argument that it would be unconscionable not to enforce the agreement because the consideration for said agreement was the parties marriage to each other.  This provides you with much better odds that said provision will be enforced versus not having said agreement and taking your chances when you divorce later on.

My minimum retainer fee to prepare a pre-nuptial agreement is $500.00.

Hire an experienced attorney and get it done right the first time and make sure that your rights are protected.  Depending on the case and the pleadings involved, an experienced attorney may be able to complete the work twice or three times faster saving the client time and money.

I try to charge a very fair and reasonable fee for the work that is performed.  This law firm takes pride in our work and has the experience to know what should be done and what should not be done.  Legal services performed may affect your life for many years to come and it is very important that you obtain the services of a qualified attorney with experience.
