Prenuptial agreements or premarital agreements. How are they enforced in North Carolina? There's a strong preference for keeping premarital agreements as enforceable contracts between the parties for division of their property and for the terms of spousal support or alimony. If any that were included in that document, the key to having your prenuptial agreement upheld would be to make sure that there's been a full and fair disclosure of the assets going into the marriage, that there's a clear agreement about the terms of the marriage, that the premarital agreement is executed well prior to the marriage itself, and that upon separation, there is an ability for both attorneys and both parties to determine exactly what the obligations and responsibilities are to the other party.
