Professional research attorneys Turner and Morgan, who provide research, analysis, and writing services to practicing attorneys in the area of family law, address what happens after a marital agreement is signed by both parties and focus on issues of validity and construction from the viewpoint of the court, as it lacks independent knowledge of what took place during negotiation. They provide guidance to attorneys who are faced with these issues and describe all of the arguments that find minimum support in the available case law and their strengths and weaknesses, to help them make and evaluate arguments on the validity and construction of separation, antenuptial, and postnuptial agreements. They also highlight rules that are unworkable or unsuccessful and provisions that tend to cause problems for one or both parties. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
