Pre-Nuptial and Post-Nuptial Agreements

Pre-nuptial agreements are legal contracts signed before marriage that outline how assets, debts, and property will be divided if the relationship ends. Post-nuptial agreements serve the same purpose but are created after marriage. Alberta couples use these agreements to protect family property, business interests, and provide clarity about financial expectations under the Family Property Act.

These agreements require independent legal advice to be enforceable in Alberta. Hart Law Office ensures your agreement is properly drafted and legally sound.

Separation Agreements and Independent Legal Advice

Separation agreements in Alberta address property division, spousal support, child support, and parenting arrangements when a relationship ends. These legally binding contracts must reflect a fair understanding of each party’s rights under Alberta family law. Independent legal advice protects both parties by confirming each person understands the agreement’s terms and their legal implications before signing.

Hart Law Office provides independent legal advice for clients reviewing separation agreements and drafts comprehensive agreements that reflect your specific circumstances under provincial legislation.

Uncontested Divorce Applications

An uncontested divorce occurs when both spouses agree on all terms, including property division, support, and parenting arrangements. Alberta requires couples to live separately for one year before applying for divorce based on separation. The process is more straightforward when both parties consent, thereby reducing court time and legal costs and allowing families to move forward.

Hart Law Office prepares and files uncontested divorce applications for Beaumont families who have reached an agreement on all relevant matters.

Cohabitation Agreements

A cohabitation agreement is a legal contract between unmarried partners who live together or plan to live together. This agreement outlines each partner’s rights and responsibilities regarding property ownership, financial obligations, support arrangements, and asset division in the event the relationship ends. Alberta’s Adult Interdependent Relationships Act recognizes common-law relationships, making these agreements particularly valuable for protecting both parties’ interests and avoiding potential disputes.

Hart Law Office drafts comprehensive cohabitation agreements for Beaumont couples who want to establish clear expectations and protect their individual and shared interests as they build their lives together.
