Query: Should I get a Prenup?
Context: A prenuptial agreement is a written contract that a couple makes before and in contemplation of marriage. A well-drafted prenuptial agreement sets the rules by which a married couple operates should they ever separate and/or divorce down the road. The purpose of a prenup is to set out the terms of the couple’s assets and debts, including property and future earnings and how they should be distributed if the marriage is dissolved. If you are considering marriage, yes. And do it early, since there are legal consequences for signing a prenup too close to your wedding. It may be the least-fun part of your wedding planning, but the reality is that divorce rates are too high to ignore.
