By Elena Giannattasio, International Family Lawyer (New York & San Francisco), Multi-Jurisdictional Divorce, PLLC
Prenuptial agreements are permitted under Spanish law and must comply with Article 90 of the Spanish Civil Code. Agreements may be customized, provided they do not harm the interests of a child or seriously prejudice either spouse. Spain’s recognition of marital contracts has expanded significantly in recent years.
Our Global Practice Perspective
For internationally mobile couples, Spanish agreements can play a vital role when property is located across multiple jurisdictions or when spouses maintain residences in Spain and abroad.
From New York and San Francisco, international family lawyer Elena Giannattasio advises clients with cross-border family law matters involving Spain, providing advanced forum analysis and strategic coordination with trusted local counsel in Spanish law and other relevant jurisdictions, as appropriate.
