Missing This Detail? Your Binding Financial Agreement Could Be Invalid!

A binding financial agreement (BFA) is a legal document that can help to avoid disputes in the event of a marriage breakdown. However, taking the property disclosure process seriously is important when signing a BFA. Whether both parties have accurately disclosed all of their local and overseas assets is essential for the agreement’s validity.

Even if you believe that some assets are of little value, you still need to disclose them.

If the court finds that you have not disclosed all of your assets, it may rule that you have concealed assets and void the agreement. If the agreement is void, the undisclosed assets will be considered divisible property and will need to be redistributed.
