Make Legal Utah Postnuptial Forms For Free

Prenups are only valid if they are completed (i.e., signed) before getting married. However, you're not SOL if you are already married. You can consider getting a postnuptial agreement (a.k.a. postnup) instead of a prenup.

Before proceeding with a postnup, it's also worth keeping in mind that these agreements are easier to enforce in some states than in others. Most courts tend to uphold the agreements as long as they're written, signed without coercion, and involve a full disclosure of financial information on both sides.

Utah Postnuptial agreements are also enforceable in Utah, but consideration is required. So if one party agrees to allow the other to retain all real property upon the Utah divorce, then the first party must receive something in return, like he/she gets all the retirement account, or the jet.

With a postnuptial agreement, the couple is already legally bound and the spouses owe a fiduciary duty to each other. There may be a concern that the provisions in a postnuptial agreement were not bargained for because one spouse did not really have a choice about signing the agreement.
