What Are the Benefits of a Premarital Agreement?
A premarital agreement, also commonly referred to as a “prenup,” is a written contract spouses create before getting married which establishes solutions for issues that should arise in the event they should ever divorce. Though once thought to only be of benefit to the rich, prenups have become a commonly used legal tool for couples of all tax brackets and can be useful for a variety of purposes. Prenups are best thought of like an insurance policy: you hope to never use it, but will be happy to have it in the event of a worst case scenario.
Couples can decide nearly all divorce-related issues ahead of time with a prenup, including:
Generally speaking, prenups are enforceable by law as long as they are created with the knowing and voluntary consent of both spouses, signed, and are compliant with all California laws. Retaining separate and independent legal counsel for each spouse is highly recommended, and in some cases a legal requirement, to help ensure a prenup is legally binding.
