These types of agreements are generally held valid in Florida as long as they are entered into in good faith and without undue influence. It is also important to note that not all issues to be decided upon dissolution of marriage can be authoritatively established in the nuptial agreements. Custody, child support, and alimony, for instance, will be determined by the court, although the agreement may be considered. These documents should be carefully drafted and each spouse should obtain competent representation. Failure to execute the documents properly may result in their invalidation.
