A prenuptial agreement executed immediately before marriage was determined to be enforceable against a widow claiming a share of her deceased husband’s estate. The trial court found that the widow entered into the agreement “freely, knowledgeably, and in good faith” even though she testified that she only saw a part of the document and that the decedent (husband) told her that it would apply only in the event of their divorce. The widow admitted that she did not seek independent legal advice.
In re Estate of Carl Robin Geary, Sr. No. M2011-01705-COA-R3-CV, February 28, 2012.
