Across the Borderline - Prenups and the Migratory Couple, AAML Webinar
American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers
You may know where your client is getting married, but you don't know where she or he might be getting a divorce (or die). That is the rub and that is what this seminar is about. A choice of law clause may or may not be effective. Will a court in Massachusetts enforce a Virginia premarital agreement at divorce? What about an arbitration clause? Your client may end up in Texas where jury trials are the norm. Or in Indiana where all property is fair game for division at divorce. Or what about a couple with a premarital agreement from the EU getting divorced in the states. Can you include a forum selection clause in a premarital agreement? What state's law will determine division of whatever is defined by the agreement as marital property if the premarital agreement does not predetermine this issue? Premarital agreements can be a risky business. What can you do as the drafting lawyer to better protect your client who may move to another state? Ameliorate your risk and learn from the best - AAML's own and the country's leading prenup expert.
