The Prenuptial Agreement – A Good Way to Protect Yourself in the Event of Divorce
As this article mentions, a Census Bureau study indicates that fewer than 50% of couples that were to celebrate their silver anniversary sometime after the year 2000 will do so.
As the articles adds, “even the most optimistic people have to ask themselves” what financial condition they will be in if their marriage does not work out.
The most effective way for couples to protect themselves from financial harm in the event of a divorce is by obtaining a prenuptial agreement. Pre-nuptial agreements usually govern the use, ownership and disposition of real and personal property acquired both before and after the marriage, whether the marriage terminates by death of a spouse or a divorce.
