A plan for the unexpected
As unromantic as it may seem, prenuptial agreements can be an important and healthy part of a marriage.
A prenuptial agreement (also known as “prenup”), antenuptial agreement, or premarital agreement is a contract signed before two people are wed. This contract between partners can be used to outline alimony or spousal support, child support, personal property, and more in the event of divorce.
Similarly, a postnuptial agreement is a prenup that is signed after marriage.
Division of property
These documents clearly state the division of property should the marriage end.
Typically, assets acquired before marriage are non-marital or separate property and assets purchased during the marriage are marital property. The rights to these assets, like real estate, can vary depending on the state law and whether you live in a community property state.
If these things aren’t outlined prior to marriage or during the marriage, they have to be mediated or negotiated in the court as part of the divorce process.
According to the National Center for Health Statistics, roughly 42% of marriages end in divorce. Discussing financial information before you get married can make things much easier in the event of a divorce.
Although uncomfortable, talking through sensitive financial issues related to the creation of a prenup agreement and confirming you’re on the same page as your future spouse can strengthen your relationship now.
Issues commonly addressed by Prenuptial Agreements
Wealth
One partner earns substantially more money or is considerably wealthier than the other at the time of marriage.
Children
Children from a previous marriage raise potential custody, child support and visitation issues.
Assets
One partner owns a lucrative business or other valuable property that they want to protect.
Debt
One partner brings substantial debt to the marriage that the other would not want to be responsible for if they went through a divorce.
A suite of helpful resources
The first step is to figure out if you need a prenuptial agreement. If you determine you want a prenuptial agreement, next seek independent legal advice to ensure the document is comprehensive and legally binding.
