Pre-nuptial & Post-nuptial Agreements

Guiding you through Pre and Post-Nuptial Agreements.

Pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements are increasingly utilised by persons wishing to have some form of certainty should they ever separate from their partner.

Whilst one agreement is entered into prior to marriage and the other after marriage, both forms of agreement promote transparency between a couple, and can manage expectations by setting clear financial provisions on separation. As a result, these agreements can help protect individual property, clarify financial rights, and minimise future conflict.


Our Expertise

We offer specialist advice on the preparation and enforceability of pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements and how the court is likely to treat these agreements in any given financial family application. We draft bespoke agreements to ensure that the terms of the agreement are clear, achieve your aims, and provide you with the best possible protection should your marriage or civil partnership breakdown.


Our Approach

A pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreement has to be entered into freely, with both parties fully understanding the financial implications of what they are agreeing to. At BCR, negotiations with the other party are handled sensitively and fairly but with your aims and your best interests at the centre. Our expert team makes sure that the terms of the agreement reflect your wishes, are clear and understood, and stand the best prospects of being upheld by a court should it ever come to that.
