Separation agreements are a significant and vital part of every divorce lawyer’s practice. Negotiating and Drafting Marital Agreements provides sample clauses and over 100 forms for creating a marital agreement that is tailored to the needs of both clients while meeting the requirements of Virginia’s statutory scheme. Prepared by experienced practitioners, the forms include alternative language that may suggest creative solutions to the most difficult dilemmas that can arise when couples separate.
Revisions in this 2019 edition take into consideration the sweeping changes to the I.R.S. Code that will significantly affect negotiations for many couples as they divide marital property and determine support and custody obligations. For example, alimony is no longer deductible by the payor spouse, nor is it characterized as income to the spouse who receives it. The per-child federal tax deduction is now $0, and the deduction for interest on home acquisition loans has also been limited. Other changes made for 2018 include expanded use of I.R.C. 529 educational funds for elementary or secondary school expenses in addition to college tuition. Virginia law has added new calculations for the child support guidelines in mixed custody situations and also made the retirement of a party a potential modification factor for spousal support.
