This bill would set specific legal requirements that postnuptial agreements must meet in order to be valid and enforceable in Kentucky. It also requires that at least 60 days pass between when a person first receives the agreement and when it is signed. Without meeting these conditions, a postnuptial agreement would have no legal standing. Who it may affect: married couples who enter into or are considering a postnuptial agreement.
