Our own SuAnne Hardee Bryant just won a significant case before the Virginia Court of Appeals, and the ruling has important lessons for anyone with a premarital agreement.

In the case, the court upheld a premarital agreement in which a husband had waived his right to a share of his wife's estate six weeks prior to their marriage in 2000. When she passed away in 2023, he sought to claim a portion of her $17 million estate, arguing the agreement was signed under duress and obtained by fraud. The court disagreed, finding the agreement was voluntarily executed and fully enforceable. SuAnne noted that while premarital agreements come up often in divorce cases, few deal with spousal waivers in the context of estate administration, making this a notable ruling for Virginia estate law.

The big takeaway? Premarital agreements aren't just about divorce. The language you agree to today can determine what happens to your estate and your loved ones after you're gone. Review these agreements carefully with an attorney before signing!

This case was reported by Eric T. Berkman in Virginia Lawyers Weekly, April 13, 2026. The full article is available to subscribers at

But a question we hear often from our clients is “how much is too much for one LLC to hold?” Read our latest blog to find out:

People have a lot of preconceived notions when they hear the term premarital agreement (or “prenup”), usually picturing untrustworthy spouses and huge net worth. In reality, a premarital agreement is simply a planning tool that can provide clarity, protection, and peace of mind for both people entering a marriage, especially when there are children from previous marriages.
