Nobody ever knows what the future holds. This is particularly true in relationships.
Whilst Prenuptial Binding Financial Agreements are certainly not compulsory, and are not suitable for all people and situations, they do enable spouses the ability to protect their assets in the event of a future separation.
This is particularly useful in circumstances where one or both spouses may have accrued their own assets prior to the relationship commencing and/or in second relationships where parties wish to ensure that the children from their first marriage have their inheritance protected from a family law claim.
