Premarital Agreement
Premarital agreement is a written contract created by two people
planning to be married. The agreement typically lists all of the
property each person owns, as well as their debts, and it specifies
what each person's property rights will be after they tie the knot.
Premarital agreements often specify how property will be divided --
and whether spousal support (alimony) will be paid -- in the event
of a divorce.

Yes, A premarital agreement shall be in writing and signed by both
parties. Such agreement shall be enforceable without consideration
and shall become effective upon marriage.
May I amend the agreement after marriage?
After marriage, a premarital agreement may be amended or revoked
only by a written agreement signed by the parties. The amended
agreement or the revocation is enforceable without consideration.
