Regarding French Law, prenuptial or marital property agreement is a legal document drawn up between a couple before their marriage to manage their assets and the type of marital agreement they want.

This is sometimes difficult to understand as even if prenuptial agreement are a common thing in other countries, choosing the right type of agreement does not exist in Common Law.
Legal consequences depending on the type of agreement are finally understood and lead to arguments when spouses decide to get an international divorce. This is also true when expats were not aware of their marital agreement and the law does not correspond to their culture.

If you are a French expat or you have assets as your partner in France or whatever your citizenship is, we advise to get a bilingual international family law lawyer.
