Understanding Prenuptial Agreements

A prenuptial agreement, commonly known as a prenup, is a legal document executed before marriage, outlining the division and ownership of assets should the marriage end. It’s designed to protect both parties’ interests, providing peace of mind and preventing future disputes.

Key Benefits of a Prenuptial Agreement

  1. Asset Protection: Safeguards your personal assets and investments from future marital disputes.
  2. Financial Clarity: Establishes clear financial responsibilities within the marriage, reducing conflicts over money.
  3. Streamlined Divorce Proceedings: Simplifies the divorce process, should it become necessary, by predetermined asset division.
