Contract Type FiledOctober 20th, 2020In 1992, in response to growing concern regarding a husband’s ability to purpose- fully withhold a get from his wife without halachic reason to do so, as well as the modern day beit din’s lack of authority to ensure that gittin were delivered in a timely manner, a prenuptial agreement was developed. Its purpose was to ensure that a husband would deliver a get in a timely fashion, while being sensitive to the halachot that would render a “forced” get null and void. The agreement, known as the Rab- binical Council of America and/or Beth Din of America prenuptial agreement, re- ceived approval from significant Torah authorities, and has resulted in the efficient resolution of scores of divorce cases in the years since its introduction. The current form of the agreement is available at www.theprenup.org.
