Dear Mattersnot:
Greetings. Yes, prenuptial agreements are generally enforceable in North Carolina. If I were you, I would stand firm on the issue of the prenuptial agreement being valid and let them make the next offer, and always counteroffer in line with the prenuptial agreement. If you do go to court, it is likely that the agreement will be upheld. Best of luck.
