Illinois Post-Nuptial Agreements
A post-nuptial agreement is similar to a prenuptial agreement. The basic difference between the two is that a post-nuptial agreement is created after the couple enters a civil union or marriage, rather than before. The most common purpose of a post-nuptial is to assign the division of assets should the couple decide to get a divorce or separate. The agreement can also be implemented in the event of a spouse’s death.

Financial problems, even potential financial problems or uncertainties, are a cause of emotional stress which can turn a good marriage into a barely functioning one with an ongoing “blame game.” According to The Huffington Post, the answer to resolving such issues may simply be a post-nuptial agreement.
