What is a Prenuptial Agreement?

A prenuptial agreement is a legally binding agreement between spouses or spouses-to-be that regulates how their property should be distributed in the event of a possible division of property. By drawing up a prenuptial agreement, you can decide that certain property should be individual and thus excluded from the joint property, which is otherwise divided equally in the event of a divorce or death. This can include real estate, bank accounts, shares, pension savings and other valuables.

Why is a Prenuptial Agreement Needed?

Protect Property : If you want to ensure that certain property, such as a business, inheritance, or personal assets, remains your sole property and is not shared in an estate division.

Business owner : As a self-employed person, it is important to protect the company's assets from being divided in a divorce. Without a prenuptial agreement, the value of the business can be divided equally between you, which can have serious financial consequences.

Different Financial Conditions : If you have very different financial conditions, a prenuptial agreement can help create fairness and clarity in financial matters.

Future Inheritance and Gifts : To protect future inheritance or gifts that you want to remain separate property, you can specify this in the prenuptial agreement.
