Are Prenups Just For The Wealthy?
For most people, marriage is an exciting time in their lives. However, with such a high divorce rate in this country, many people are hesitant to jump into marriage. They worry about their financial stability in cases of divorce. Many wealthier couples make use of premarital agreements, often called prenups. however, should these agreements be relegated to just wealthy couples?
Prenuptial Agreements Are Not A Bad Thing Prenuptial agreements are commonly a tool used by the wealthy to ensure that their assets are protected in case a divorce happens. The use of these agreements should extend beyond the rich and famous. There is a common misconception that a prenuptial agreement is another way of simply planning on marriage to fail. This is not true, and having a prenuptial agreement does not predispose a marriage to be more likely to end in divorce.

A fair division of any marital 01 property. Assets that you and your spouse 02 had prior to the marriage. 03 How assets obtained during the marriage will be handled and divided. 04 Matters involving debt or creditors. Benefits, inheritance, and trusts 05 that children from any prior relationship may claim.
