How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Postnuptial Agreement in Missouri (July 2025)

In 2025, a personal client in Missouri sought assistance with drafting a postnuptial agreement due to a matter that was overlooked prior to marriage. The client aimed for a fair division of assets, ensuring that all possessions—everything from homes to pets—were clearly outlined and equitably divided. Key considerations included handling the family home, the distribution of vehicles, and the care of their daughter, as well as exploring an infidelity clause for added security in the agreement. As a result, the client received two proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $700 to $999, all submitted to meet the work deadline that was requested to be a little over a week.
