Q: How can I protect my house in a case of divorce from my wife
I'm married now. I got married 3 years and 4 months ago. I had been thinking of writing a Prenuptial Agreement before getting married, but I and she had to hurry to finish doing all steps because of an international marriage. We are Rhode Island residents. I have LLC (solo membership) in a different state. I would like to buy a house in a different state (as an investment property.How is better to register a house for me or for my LLC?) How can I protect my house in a case of divorce from my wife? I would like to know if I can keep the property all to myself after divorce.Can I write an agreement form like a prenuptial agreement as I want even though I'm already married? And when we will sigh the prenuptial agreement can it be invalid? Thank you very much.
A: These are complex issues that are best addressed in a private meeting with an attorney. There are agreements that can be written after marriage that are like prenuptial agreements. There are many reasons the agreement may be found invalid which is why a private and confidential meeting will likely best serve your needs and answer all of your questions.
