[WSBAPT] Separate Property Agreement - sample?

[Roger Hawkes]

Julie: it is very unlikely that a single asset 'separate property' agreement would be enforceable if the agreement mentions only that asset.  Post nuptial agreements are suspect anyway.  And the court faced with a divorce has all property before it and probably would not feel bound to award that item to its owner and simply deal with the rest.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Separate Property Agreement - sample?

Hi, All:

I have a client who is interested in executing a single-asset separate property agreement.  She is in a 2nd marriage/blended family and both she and her husband would like to confirm/ratify the separate character of one of her assets.  Does any one have a template they would be willing to share?

Thank you,
Julie
