Some say it\u00a0proves you\u2019re marrying for love and not for money.<\/p>\n<p>2. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.just-family-law.com\/uploads\/pdfs\/Relationship_agreements.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Prenuptial Agreement<\/a> can be important for assets brought into the marriage, or if there are children of an earlier relationship.<\/p>\n<p>3. Don\u2019t be under any illusions about the significance of\u00a0a Prenuptial Agreement. If every couple had one there&#8217;d be far fewer disputes about\u00a0finances,\u00a0and divorce solicitors would be left twiddling their thumbs.<\/p>\n<p>4. If a Prenuptial Agreement is prepared with the assistance of an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.just-family-law.com\/about-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">expert family solicitor<\/a>\u00a0it stands a good chance of being upheld by the court.<\/p>\n<p>5. If you don\u2019t have a Prenuptial Agreement and your marriage breaks down all the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.just-family-law.com\/what-we-do\/divorce-and-finance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">finances<\/a>\u00a0are up for grabs because the ownership of any asset, whether in sole or joint names, and whenever acquired, can be changed.<\/p>\n<p>6. A Prenuptial Agreement can be particularly important if one of the couple is wealthy.<\/p>\n<p>7. The longer you&#8217;re together the more likely it is your circumstances will change, for example you might start a very successful business. If your Prenuptial Agreement no longer suits your circumstances it can be revised.<\/p>\n<p>8. Or if you don\u2019t have a Prenuptial Agreement you can enter into a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.just-family-law.com\/what-we-do\/relationship-agreements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Post Nuptial Agreement.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>9. In fact it\u2019s never too late. Even if your marriage has broken down and you&#8217;ve decided to divorce you can enter into a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.just-family-law.com\/what-we-do\/relationship-agreements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Separation Agreement<\/a>. This can provide for you to live separately and divorce after two years, and can set out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.just-family-law.com\/blog\/index.php\/2017\/03\/29\/8-tips-on-arrangements-for-children-after-separation\/\" target=\"_blank\">arrangements for the children<\/a>, the property and money.<\/p>\n<p>10.
