What is the future of pre-nuptial agreements in New York?

Pre-nuptial agreements have had a longstanding history of being iron clad contracts that were rarely challenged and if challenged upheld on a consistent basis.  That appears to no longer be the case in New York as Courts are beginning to hear arguments from spouses in support of vacating these agreements.  The latest pre-nuptial agreement overturned occurred in Nassau County where it has been reported that the Judge vacated the agreement as it would have left the spouse “practically destitute”.
