Post-Nuptial & Post-Civil Partnership Agreements

Post-nuptial or post-civil partnership (also known as post-CiP)  agreements do not achieve the same amount of publicity as their prenup or pre-civil equivalents.However, it is possible for married couples or civil partners to enter into an agreement about money and property in the event of future separation or divorce/dissolution.

Couples may want a post-nup or a post-CiP where an inheritance is received, or possibly where there has been a period of separation followed by reconciliation where one party seeks reassurance or financial security. Our experienced family solicitors are able to assist and advise on post-marital matters such as these.
