Our family law attorneys often run into clients asking about the enforceability of a prenuptial agreement during a divorce case. 
Here is what you should know—the only way you can determine if you are going to be allowed to keep certain assets following a divorce is to seek out expert legal counsel.
Remember, any legally binding prenuptial agreement is one that you have signed off on, involving issues such as alimony and/or the division of marital assets. Because of this, when drafted and executed properly, premarital and post marital agreements are usually upheld in a court.
Nevertheless, you should know a prenuptial agreement could potentially be modified or challenged by someone who has obtained experienced legal counsel. While you may have a binding agreement, there are always ways you can work with an attorney, who may be able to renegotiate or challenge certain stipulations contained in it.
Each state has individual laws designating the way assets accumulated during marriage are divided, which is something that your attorney should have talked to you about while drafting your prenuptial agreement.
If you disagree with your prenuptial agreement and feel as though it is invalid, there are ways you may be able to argue that it should be voided. This includes challenging issues surrounding its language and execution. Keep in mind, a prenuptial agreement could potentially be found invalid if you can prove that you were pressured into signing it, or it is found to contain invalid provisions and/or false information.
