A Premarital Agreement for Your BusinessPremarital Agreement • March 12th, 2015
Contract Type FiledMarch 12th, 2015Before two people with money get married, it’s a good idea to sign a premarital agreement. A premarital agreement says what happens when the couple splits up – who gets the house, the car, and the brokerage accounts, and whether either spouse will have to pay alimony to the other after the divorce. A premarital agreement is a good idea because a divorce between two people with money is like the breakup of a business partnership in that the main concern is who gets the assets and the earning power of the business. If premarital agreements are a good idea, then pre-partner agreements are an even better idea. You should have one in place before you form any business with another person.
