Texas is a community property state. While this concept is ultimately complex, the basic fact is that any assets or debts acquired during the marriage \u2014 regardless of who made the purchase \u2014 are automatically owned by the community; 100 percent of the assets or debts are owned by both you and your spouse. The only way to keep ownership straight is through the use of prenuptial and postnuptial agreements.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A <strong>prenuptial agreement<\/strong> is a pre-marriage agreement that stipulates ownership of any property or assets that were acquired before the marriage.<\/li>\n<li>A<strong> postnuptial agreement<\/strong> is used to keep assets and debts acquired throughout the marriage separate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In our experience, it is best to have a written document in case disputes ever arise. Many couples have an &#8220;understanding&#8221; or &#8220;verbal agreement&#8221; about who owns what, but these agreements typically fail in the face of adversity.
