Overview
When a marital agreement makes sense
Without an agreement, property acquired during the marriage is joint. A marital agreement lets you decide in advance how property, businesses and income will be owned and divided, and avoids disputes later.
01
One of you owns a business or significant assets
02
You live in different countries or plan to move
03
This is a second marriage or you have children from earlier relationships
04
You want clarity on property bought during the marriage
