How to Write a Prenuptial Agreement

Prenuptial agreements are no longer just for the rich and famous. Many people are increasingly seeing the benefits of a good and fair prenuptial agreement. A prenuptial agreement allows you to choose for yourself what will happen to your assets during marriage, and, if divorce occurs, how assets will be distributed between you and your partner. Prenuptial agreements can also be used to protect some of your assets for any children you bring to the marriage. Without a prenuptial agreement, the state could decide these things for you in a way unsuitable for both parties.

Of course, there are things that a prenuptial agreement cannot cover, such as child custody in the event of a divorce. Adding claims that cannot be held up by law is not advisable, as they can actually make a judge take the whole agreement less seriously should you need to use it in a court of law.
