A quick definition of divorce agreement:

Divorce agreement: A divorce agreement is a written agreement for couples who are getting divorced. It decides things like how they will divide their things, who will take care of the children, how much money one person will give the other, and when the children will visit each parent. The agreement can be made before or after the divorce is filed. Once it is written, signed, and accepted by the court, it becomes a rule that both people have to follow. If they can't agree on something, a judge can help them. They can change the agreement later if they both want to.

A more thorough explanation:

A divorce agreement is a legal document that outlines the terms and conditions of a divorce settlement. It is a written agreement between the divorcing couple that settles issues such as:

The agreement can be entered into before or after the couple files for divorce. Once the agreement has been put into writing, signed by both parties, and accepted by the court, it becomes a binding contract that both parties must obey. Judges can review the agreement to ensure that the terms are fair to both parties and can also settle issues that the parties cannot agree on.

For example, if a couple decides to get a divorce, they may create a divorce agreement that outlines how they will divide their property, who will have custody of their children, and how much child support and alimony will be paid. Once the agreement is signed and accepted by the court, it becomes legally binding.

Divorce agreements can be modified in the future if both parties wish to change the terms of the contract. For instance, if one party loses their job and can no longer afford to pay the agreed-upon amount of child support, they may request a modification of the agreement.
