Prenuptial Agreement

When to Use this Agreement

Any couple intending to marry, who wish to define their respective property rights and liabilities in the event of a relationship breakdown or the death of a partner.

The Prenup becomes a legal expression of the intent of the couple, who wish their property to be divided by a different means to that determined by a court of law.

Your rights and obligations can be spelled out in writing, eliminating the burden of uncertainty. It is a sure sign of the strength and determination of a couple when they can honestly discuss the practical and unromantic aspects of their relationship at a time when they are planning the rest of their lives together.
