Oregon Postnuptial Property Agreement
What is this form?
The Postnuptial Property Agreement is a legal document that helps spouses define and specify their rights regarding both separate and joint property acquired before and during their marriage. Unlike a prenuptial agreement, which is created before marriage, this agreement is executed after the wedding and serves to clarify ownership during the marriage and in the event of separation, divorce, or death.
What’s included in this form
- Introduction:
- Separate Property: Details how separate property is defined and controlled by each spouse without interference from the other.

- Amendment or Revocation: States that the agreement can be amended or revoked at any time if both parties agree.
- Governing Law: Establishes that the agreement is subject to the laws of the State of Oregon.
