In a perfect world, everyone would get married and have their happily ever after. Sadly this is not the case and, by signing an agreement before conflict hits, both parties can be sure exactly where they stand should things go wrong. It can also save any additional time, expense, and animosity.
A prenuptial agreement is a contract entered into prior to marriage or civil union and is often referred to as a premarital agreement or ante-nuptial agreement. A postnuptial agreement is entered into after marriage, while a couple is still together.
Both of these contracts determine how assets will be divided should the marriage break down. The agreements are designed to provide certainty and protect pre-marital assets including inheritance, property and even children from previous relationships, as well as any additional matrimonial assets.
