Beyond the Stigma: Pre and Postnuptial Agreements
Marriage, while a joyous and celebratory occasion, should also be approached with the same touch of practicality that would be recommended when entering into any legally binding contract. Couples undoubtedly don’t wish to think about the possibility of divorce while reveling in the glow of engagement, however approximately 48% of first marriages in the United States end in divorce and the probability increases for second and third marriages.
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, colloquially known as pre- and post-nups, have long been stigmatized, however recent reports show that they are growing in popularity, particularly amongst younger people. Approximately 15% of Americans signed one in 2022, with 40% of those individuals being between the ages of 18 and 34. The concept of a prenup dates back more than 2,000 years ago and were most often crafted by the parents of the bride and groom to ensure that the wife would have rights to property upon divorce or the death of her husband.
