Should I Use A Prenuptial Agreement To Shield My Rochester Business In The Event Of Divorce?

Yes, prenuptial agreements are an excellent way to create certainty around which parties own what property at the outset, and possible dissolution, of a marriage.

Knowing that your spouse may make investments or other contributions to your business, a prenuptial agreement can ensure that regardless of those contributions, the business remains a separate asset that won’t be liquidated or distributed in the event of a divorce.

Remember that prenups don’t anticipate a divorce, they just provide both partners with clear guidance in the event that the marriage doesn’t work out.

A properly written prenup will include the interests of both spouses, and present a balanced approach to the terms of a divorce, should one happen.

To be enforceable, your fiance should have their own attorney review the document and negotiate potential changes.

Remember, a prenup that can’t be enforced in court is just a very expensive piece of paper, so work together to draft a document that provides for both of your interests.
