Premarital Contracts Offer More Certainty

What if? It’s a question we ask when we buy insurance, knowing that we cannot control the future, but also knowing that we should be prepared. A prenuptial agreement offers more certainty in the eventuality that the marriage ends in divorce, separation or death.

A prenuptial agreement puts more certainty into your future. You and your intended spouse will have a well-thought-out contract that defines what you can both expect.

If this is a second marriage, if there are children or other obligations from a previous marriage, those issues should be a part of the premarital contract. If one party is a partner in a business, a prenuptial agreement can protect the business and other business owners.

The Process of Contract Negotiation Can Strengthen the Relationship.

The excitement of a wedding can too often take away from the importance of the marriage itself – the lifelong commitment of two people engaged in a legal partnership. At Stolar & Associates, we encourage soon-to-be-wed couples to think of the long term and of the need to assure both have the same expectations of the legal partnership.

Both Parties Should Have an Attorney.

One lawyer cannot represent two clients signing the same contract. If the contract is ever challenged in court, it is essential that both parties can prove they had individual counsel.
