PRENUPTIAL / POSTNUPTIAL AGREEMENTS

A Prenuptial Agreement is an agreement made between two individuals who intend to be married and wish to define certain property and support rights in the event the marriage ends in divorce or death. To the contrary, a Postnuptial Agreement is the same type of agreement, but the individuals are already married. These types of agreements help define the parties’ expectations in the event of divorce or death and provide necessary protections that the terms mutually agreed upon will be honored.

GUARDIANSHIP

Sometimes guardianship is appropriate and necessary when a disabled person, known as a “ward”, lacks the ability to make responsible medical and financial decisions for oneself usually as a result of a physical or mental disability.

At D’Alessio Law, we are able to assist clients with all stages of the guardianship proceedings for both guardianship of an adult disabled person or a minor.
