What Is A Prenup And Why Do You Need One?
A prenuptial agreement is a type of contract that fiancés can sign before they get married. It stipulates how they will divide their assets and property if they file for divorce. Prenup agreements in Milwaukee County and anywhere else can help protect your financial interests. They distinguish between marital property, which you acquire during the marriage, and separate property, which you owned before the marriage. Having a prenup in place can prevent disputes and provide clarity in financial matters.
The Risks Of Not Having A Prenup
Without a prenup, you face uncertainty and the possibility of an endless legal battle in the event of a divorce. Wisconsin is a community property state. This means that courts split marital property 50-50 between spouses. However, disagreements can arise over what counts as marital versus separate property. For instance, if one of you owns a business, a prenup can protect that asset. Without one, you risk lengthy court proceedings and hefty financial losses. Instead, protect your assets and set clear expectations from the start.
Choosing The Right Lawyer For Your Prenup
When signing a prenuptial agreement, you need a prenuptial agreement lawyer who will advocate for you. When hiring a prenup attorney, you should look for:
- Experience
- A track record of success
