What is a postnuptial agreement?

A postnuptial agreement is a legal contract signed after marriage that determines how financial matters are handled in the event of a divorce. In it, each person discloses all assets, finances, and debts, and the couple decides what will remain separate versus community property; everything earned during marriage becomes 50/50. Unlike a prenup, a postnuptial agreement allows joint representation.
