Why Create A Prenuptial Agreement?

Transparent communication in any relationship is vital to the lifecycle of that relationship. Couples committing to marriage and cohabitation are especially vulnerable to misunderstandings having dire consequences for their long-term financial well-being.

Sometimes, couples shy away from creating a prenuptial agreement because they are not anticipating divorce or separation at this point in their lives. They feel that creating this type of legal document could cast a shadow of distrust in their relationship. At Beroes Law Center, we understand but disagree with this mindset. Our counselors at law believe in fostering healthy, long-term relationships and find that prenups are helpful to couples.

We partner with our clients to help them understand that creating a prenuptial, post-marital or cohabitation agreement can be the mark of a mature relationship for couples willing to set boundaries on what matters most to them now and in the future.

Prenuptial, post-marital or cohabitation agreements can include a wide range of terms, including, but not limited to:

If you were forced to sign a prenuptial agreement or there were terms on it that you did not fully understand, you may have an unconscionable and unenforceable prenup. Our legal team is here to help create, modify or review your prenuptial or cohabitation agreement.
