Division of Debt

Division of debt in a prenuptial agreement refers to how debts incurred before and during a marriage will be shared or assigned between partners if they divorce. The agreement can specify which spouse is responsible for certain debts, helping to clarify financial responsibilities and protect each partner's interests. By addressing debts upfront, couples can avoid disputes later on, ensuring a smoother separation process. This division can include anything from student loans to credit card debt, allowing both parties to understand their liabilities clearly and plan accordingly.
