Understanding Pre-Nuptial and Post-Nuptial Agreements

Pre-Nuptial Agreements

A pre-nuptial agreement is a legal document signed before marriage. It outlines how your assets, income, and debts would be divided if your relationship ends. It can cover:

  • Property ownership
  • Savings and investments
  • Business assets
  • Inheritance and family wealth
  • Financial support after separation

Post-Nuptial Agreements

A post-nuptial agreement is similar, but entered into after the marriage has taken place. These are often used when:

  • One party receives an inheritance
  • There’s a business venture or significant change in finances
  • You wish to clarify arrangements after a period of separation
  • A family member is gifting or transferring assets

Are Pre-Nuptial Agreements Legally Binding?

In England and Wales, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are not automatically legally binding. However, courts will usually uphold them if:

  • Both parties received independent legal advice
  • There was full and honest financial disclosure
  • The agreement was signed in advance of the wedding (not last minute)
  • There was no pressure or coercion
  • The agreement is fair and does not prejudice either party’s needs

Having your agreement properly drafted with legal advice significantly increases its weight in court proceedings.

How much does a pre-nup or post-nup cost?

Fees vary depending on the complexity of your finances, whether there are international aspects, and how much negotiation is needed. We offer a fixed-fee service where suitable, and all costs will be clearly explained at your initial consultation.

How long does it take to draft the agreement?

Typically, we advise allowing at least 4–6 weeks before the wedding for pre-nups. This ensures enough time for both parties to receive independent legal advice and avoid any appearance of pressure.

Can we include future changes?

Yes. We can include review clauses or triggers for revisions—such as the birth of a child, changes in business ownership, or other significant life events.
