Five Tips for Drafting a Premarital Agreement with Elizabeth Hardman | Episode 172

Join Ryan Kalamaya and one of our family law attorneys Elizabeth Hardman in our insightful discussion as they share their top five tips for those contemplating a premarital agreement. We’ll shed light on the benefits of such agreements and emphasize the significance of engaging legal counsel to guarantee its validity and enforceability and why discussions about finances are critical before tying the knot, particularly if there are substantial financial differences between the spouses.

Understand the importance of financial disclosure, the risks of rushing the process, and the possible hazards of entering an agreement without full knowledge of your partner’s financial situation. They also discuss how courts perceive premarital agreements made on the brink of marriage and the implications of waiving alimony or maintenance. Learn why it’s crucial to be prepared to walk away from the agreement or even the wedding if it’s not fair, and find out the importance of videotaping the signing of the agreement and maintaining a secure record of it.
