Pre-marital agreements
A pre-marital agreement, or a pre-nuptial agreement as it is also called, is a contract entered into by a couple prior to marriage. It attempts to deal with how their assets will be divided, in the event of their separation or divorce.
Although these pre-marital agreements are not binding under English Law, the courts are increasingly taking them into account on divorce and attaching weight to them where the terms are seen to be reasonable.
