Ridiculously time-saving and easily customizable PDFfiller is a lifesaver as an office assistant, as I'm able to quickly populate imported forms with the info I need without filling them in by hand-which saves me time, ink, and effort! Little drawbacks to using this-while some files I import aren't already OCR-friendly, it's easy to navigate around and create text input on my own.

Questions & answers

Rather, you can include whatever you want, but unless it's enforceable under California law and your family law judge agrees with it, it won't be enforced if you ever need to rely on the agreement. It's crucial to hire an experienced attorney to help you draft and execute your prenup.
A prenup can't include personal preferences, such as who has what chores, where to spend the holidays, whose name to use, details about child rearing, or what relationship to have with certain relatives. Prenuptial agreements are designed to address financially based issues.
Unreasonable Terms Prenuptial agreements can't include terms that are considered unconscionable at the time it was signed. This includes provisions that unfairly indulge one spouse or excessively penalize one spouse. For instance, clauses relating to fidelity or infidelity are generally not enforceable.
A prenuptial agreement does not cover the following: Child custody or visitation matters. Child support. Alimony in the event of a divorce. Day-to-day household matters. Anything prohibited by the law.
In a prenuptial agreement, full disclosure is required in relation to the assets that are owned by both parties. The agreement may include a schedule of you and your spouse's assets to show that the contract was put in place with full disclosure by both parties.
The UPAA (California's Uniform Premarital Agreement Act) outlines the abilities and restrictions of prenups in this state. The law allows couples in California to draft their own prenuptial agreements. However, if they aren't completed correctly, the contract can easily become void or invalidated by a judge.
