What Is a Property Settlement Agreement?  

A Property Settlement Agreement (PSA) is a legally binding contract between spouses that outlines how their property, assets, and debts. This document serves as a roadmap for separating your lives and helps ensure a smoother transition for all parties involved. Your PSA should address:

  • Real estate ownership and any necessary transfers
  • Division of bank accounts, investments, and retirement funds
  • Allocation of vehicles and personal property
  • Distribution of marital debts
  • Life and health insurance arrangements

Having a PSA is essential for several reasons, including:

  • Avoiding leaving distribution decisions to the court: Without a PSA, the court will make decisions about your property division based on Virginia's equitable distribution laws. By creating your own agreement, you and your spouse maintain control over these important decisions rather than leaving them to a judge.
  • Protecting your interests: A well-drafted PSA clearly defines each party's rights and obligations, helping prevent future disputes and misunderstandings about assets. Working with our attorney can also improve how favorable the terms of the agreement are and can go a long way in ensuring you understand the implications of certain division determinations. 
  • Saving time and money: By agreeing on terms outside of court, you can significantly reduce legal fees and expedite the divorce process. Virginia allows for an uncontested divorce when spouses have a signed PSA and meet other requirements.

    I give Lewis my highest recommendation. He was always kind, patient, and sympathetic. He made me feel comfortable all the way through a very difficult divorce.
