Louisiana is one of nine community property states and follows a unique legal system rooted in French civil law — the only state to do so. Under La. Civ. Code Art. 2338, all property acquired during marriage is presumed to be community property, owned equally by both spouses. Louisiana's matrimonial agreement rules (La. Civ. Code Art. 2328–2332) govern prenuptial contracts, and they differ significantly from the UPAA used by most states.
Whether you're a New Orleans attorney with a growing practice, a Baton Rouge petrochemical engineer with deferred compensation, or a Lafayette couple with oil and gas interests, a prenup is especially critical in Louisiana. The community property presumption means your income, business growth, and property purchases during marriage are automatically split 50/50 unless you opt out.
SignAI generates your Louisiana matrimonial agreement with proper legal language — including compliance with Louisiana Civil Code articles on matrimonial regimes, community property considerations, and the requirement for notarization under La. Civ. Code Art. 2329.

FAQ
Yes. Louisiana calls them matrimonial agreements, governed by La. Civ. Code Art. 2328–2332. Unlike most states, Louisiana requires that the agreement be made by notarial act (signed before a notary). The agreement must be executed before the marriage and can modify the community property regime.
No. Louisiana has not adopted the Uniform Premarital Agreement Act. Instead, Louisiana follows its own civil law framework under the Louisiana Civil Code. The rules for matrimonial agreements — including the notarization requirement and permitted modifications — come from La. Civ. Code Art. 2328–2332.
Louisiana is a community property state (La. Civ. Code Art. 2338). All property acquired during marriage — including income, business growth, and purchases — belongs equally to both spouses. A matrimonial agreement is the only way to modify this default regime and keep specific assets separate.
Yes. Under La. Civ. Code Art. 2329, a matrimonial agreement must be made by notarial act — meaning it must be signed before a notary public. This is a unique Louisiana requirement that doesn't apply in most other states. Without notarization, the agreement is invalid.
Louisiana has forced heirship rules (La. Civ. Code Art. 1493) that require certain assets to pass to children under 24 (or permanently disabled children). A prenup can help define separate vs. community property, which affects what's subject to forced heirship claims — but it cannot override forced heirship protections entirely.
