If you have been married for many years, it is likely that things have changed a lot. One or both of you may have inherited significant assets or may have started a business or had a major adjustment in earning potential. As a result of these changes, you may decide it is wise to create a postnuptial agreement.
A postnuptial arrangement is similar to a prenuptial agreement and covers many of the same topics.
