A or ‘prenup’ is a legal contract created before marriage. It’s a way for both parties to agree on how assets like property, debts and other matters will be managed if the marriage ends in divorce. Many people think prenups are only for the wealthy, but they can benefit anyone. Think of it as a safety net or a financial plan that protects both of you.
So you're considering a and wondering what exactly goes into it? It's a good question. A is like a safety net for both parties involved. It outlines how assets, debts and other financial matters will be handled should the marriage end in divorce. Here's a rundown of what's usually included:

You might be tempted to go down the DIY route when it comes to prenuptial agreements. After all, there are plenty of online templates and guides that make it look easy.

Lawyers fees for prenuptial agreements can vary. We’re upfront about costs so you know what to expect. Let’s break down the costs involved.
It's hard to put a fixed price tag on lawyer fees for prenuptial agreements as it depends on your specific circumstances. However, consider it an investment in your future; a poorly drafted agreement could end up costing you far more in the long run.
In the UK, a prenup isn't automatically legally binding, but it's given considerable weight by the courts, provided it meets certain conditions.
While the courts will consider these criteria, they'll also look at the current circumstances at the time of divorce. If significant changes have happened that make the prenup unfair, it will not be upheld.
There are limits to what can be included in a prenuptial agreement. Examples include:
Knowing what can and can't be included, and whether the agreement is legally binding, are good reasons to consult a lawyer. At Switalskis, we're experts in this field.
If you’re already legally married but you wish to have a prenup drawn up, there is another option called a postnuptial agreement. This is essentially the same as a but it can be made after entering a marriage.
