Waiver of Rights to Inheritance

A Waiver of Rights to Inheritance in a prenuptial agreement is a legal provision where one spouse agrees to give up their right to inherit from the other spouse's estate in the event of death. This means that if one partner dies, the surviving partner will not claim any inheritance rights to their assets. This waiver can help clarify financial expectations and protect individual assets, especially for those entering marriage with significant personal wealth or children from previous relationships. It ensures that specific wishes regarding inheritance are respected and legally binding.
