A prenuptial agreement, also known as an antenuptial agreement, is a legal document that establishes financial boundaries prior to a marriage. Primarily, a prenuptial agreement fosters open communication and financial transparency early in the relationship. Disclosing assets, debts, and income lays the groundwork for a fair and equitable agreement that protects both partners’ financial futures in the event of divorce or death. The prenup can address property division, spousal support, inheritance rights, and debt allocation, ensuring clarity and potentially minimizing conflict during a difficult time.
