Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
If my spouse and I sign a marital agreement where in he relinquishes all claims to the house, my current and retirement earnings, how much weight would that marital agreement carry in a court of law should we decide to dissolve our marriage after the agreement is signed and he changes his mind about what was agreed upon in the marital agreement?

If the agreement is properly drafted, signed and I would suggest notarized, it should be binding and he would be held to its terms.
