The Family Law Act divides binding financial agreements, rather prosaically, into financial agreements happening before, during and after marriage. The primary of these is more colloquially known as the prenuptial agreement. Prenuptial agreements are usually regarded as the sole purview of multi-millionaires planning to protect their fortune from gold-diggers. But of course, it can do just that: there’s little reason to warrant giving away half of the assets you owned prior to the marriage. The truth, on the other hand, is that prenuptial agreements can be a sensible and prudent investment for both sides. Not surprisingly, in the miserable experience your marriage fails, would you rather the argument regarding the splitting of your possessions occur when you both love each other, or afterwards?
