Myth: Prenuptial agreements are only for wealthy couples.

Truth: Prenuptial agreements can benefit couples at many income levels. A prenup isn't just about protecting significant wealth, it can help clarify financial expectations, identify separate property, address existing debts, protect a business or future inheritance, and reduce uncertainty if the marriage ends. By having open conversations and creating a clear agreement before marriage, both spouses can gain peace of mind and a better understanding of their financial rights and responsibilities.

Every couple's circumstances are different, and state laws vary. If you're considering a prenuptial agreement or have questions about whether one is right for you, our office is here to help.
