Texas Prenuptial Agreement Attorney
Sugar Land Partition and Exchange Agreements
The best way to avoid property settlement disagreements during a divorce is to have that discussion before the marriage — well before the marriage. In some cases, a married couple will decide to separate property during the marriage. Premarital agreement lawyer Richard T. Bell helps couples negotiate agreements before and during the marriage.
A Positive Approach to Marriage and Property

There are many reasons clients come to our Sugar Land family law firm for premarital or post-marital agreements. Particularly in a second or third marriage when there are children involved, both parties need to establish their financial expectations and boundaries.
• Prenuptial Agreements: We recommend that our clients negotiate and sign a premarital agreement well before the wedding date. Signing an agreement close to the date may later be interpreted as signing under pressure. When one or both parties have substantial property, it is a good idea to clearly establish what each owned prior to the marriage. When one or both parties have children, there is a need to protect the children's property rights.
• Partition and Exchange Agreements: A post-nuptial partition and exchange agreement occurs between two married people. They may be contemplating a future separation or it simply make good business sense to divide community property at a certain point and then maintain future property as separate. If you need a partition and exchange agreement, attorney Richard T. Bell can guide you through the negotiations and the legal process.
