A Prenup Contract Avoids Unnecessary Risk and Worry

A prenuptial agreement is not required by law, but without a prenup, California law will make the decisions that could have been made in a premarital agreement.

A judge who does not know you, who does not understand the property and assets you brought into a marriage, who was not there to see the value you added to the marriage – that judge will be in a position to decide how income, debts and assets are divided at the end of a marriage.

Take Control and Add More Certainty to Your Future.

For both parties in a marriage, a prenuptial agreement adds more certainty to the future. From the time you sign the prenup, you have a written understanding of what to expect should the marriage end in a year or in 50 years for whatever reason.

The process of thinking about, planning and negotiating a prenuptial agreement helps you gain a better insight into your intended spouse, your joint financial situation, and the management of financial and other obligations during the marriage.

You will know from the first day of your marriage what is separate property and what is community property. You will know your rights and obligations should the marriage end.

At Stolar & Associates, in our experience as family law attorneys, a prenuptial agreement strengthens the marriage and the respect the parties have for each other.
