Pre-marital Agreement

A pre-marital agreement, often called a prenup, is a legal contract made before marriage that outlines how assets and debts will be handled if the marriage ends, whether through divorce or death. It can specify property division, spousal support, and other financial matters, helping both parties understand their rights and responsibilities. While some view it as unromantic, it can provide clarity and protection for both partners, ensuring that their wishes are respected and potentially reducing conflict in the future. It’s advisable to consult legal professionals when drafting a prenup to ensure it is valid and fair.
