Can A Prenuptial Agreement Be Deemed Void?

Can A Prenuptial Agreement Be Deemed Void?

Yes. There are a few things that could void your prenuptial agreement:  (1) If the agreement was not signed voluntarily or (2) If the agreement was unconscionable when signed (i.e. grossly unfair – though this has to be more than just lopsided; Virginia law makes it very difficult to find that an agreement is unconscionable) and, before signing, the person wasn’t provided a fair and reasonable disclosure of the property or financial obligations of the other party (assuming that this disclosure wasn’t knowingly and voluntarily waived in writing).
