Do You Need a Prenuptial Agreement? Palatine Lawyer Nicholas W. Richardson Can Help

Prenuptial agreements identify which assets belong to each spouse and determine how future marital assets and their values should be treated. In some cases, a prenup may address issues related to spousal support. Should the marriage end through divorce, legal separation, or death, the terms of the prenuptial agreement will be followed. These agreements can be modified, enforced, defended, or overturned.

A prenuptial agreement is particularly important to consider if:

• This is a second marriage for one or both of you, and there are children involved.
• This is a first marriage for one or both of you, and there are significant assets which have accumulated prior to this marriage.
• There is a disparity in incomes or an expectation that one spouse will give up their career for some period of time to be a caregiver to children, parents, or both.
