Agreements
In Pennsylvania, prior to being divorced, both assets and debts are divided between the parties. If the parties can resolve the division of these items by agreement, that resolution is reduced to writing in a document called a "Property Settlement Agreement" ("PSA").
While preparing for your upcoming wedding, the last thing you want to think about is getting divorced. Yet signing a prenuptial agreement may be one of the most pragmatic things you do, even if you never have to use it.
Property Settlement Agreements are a great way for parties who are separating or divorcing to settle property issues amicably and to their mutual satisfaction. Without proper legal representation, however, these agreements can lock people into settlements that are detrimental.
Let’s face it: The prenup seems so utterly unromantic - or just plain wrong - but it’s also become so right for so many these days: those keenly aware that a marriage may end up in a legal separation, divorce or death. Most prenups tackle financial issues such as real estate, division of bank accounts and potential spousal support in the case of divorce or separation.

Agreements
Pennsylvania grants a fault divorce if a spouse deserts without reasonable cause for one or more years, commits adultery, endangers the life of his or her partner or subjects a partner to cruel or barbarous treatment, was already married to someone else (bigamy) when he or she married, was sentenced to jail for longer than two years, or has made the conditions intolerable or life burdensome.
