In the day of quick marriages and even quicker divorces, the use of a Prenuptial Agreement is not as unusual as it once was. In the past, there was a stigma associated with using these agreements. If you asked for a "Prenup" the unspoken message was that the marriage would not last forever. This is no longer the case, and more and more couples are finding them a useful tool for planning for the future. Another misconception is that it was once thought that a Prenuptial Agreement was only for the very rich. Clearly this is not the case, and people from all walks of life are finding them useful tool not only for the management of their assets and liabilities, but also as a compliment to an estate plan.

A Prenuptial Agreement is an agreement between two people who are anticipating marriage. In the document, the parties set out how they would like their debts and assets distributed in the event of death or divorce. Even if you feel that you don't have a large amount of assets, it is still important for many couples. For instance, if your partner has a high amount of debt, a Prenuptial Agreement will prevent creditors coming after you in the event of a divorce. Or perhaps you have a child from a different marriage, or previous support obligations. If you should pass away, the agreement could keep your previously acquired assets separate from your current marital estate. If you have children from a previous marriage it will ensure that they receive part of your estate.
