Be sure to protect yourself if you plan to get married again

BE SURE TO PROTECT YOURSELF IF YOU PLAN TO GET MARRIED AGAIN

It is very common for people who divorce to decide to get remarried. Of course, while a new marriage holds new possibilities, it also holds risks. If you’re considering getting remarried after a divorce, be sure that you take the proper steps to protect yourself and your fairly before you enter into another marriage.

If you endured your first divorce without the help of a prenuptial agreement, then you probably understand just how valuable having a prenup is. While it is hopeful that your new relationship benefits from your past experiences and you’ve chosen your new partner using this hard-gained wisdom, you should still consider protecting your current assets using a prenup.

Prenuptial agreements can help make sure that the life you have now remains intact if things go south in the new marriage. Do you have a business? Be sure to protect it before it converts to marital property. You can even use a prenup to protect the person you marry from your debt, and vice versa.

Do you have children from a previous relationship? Be sure that they don’t get cut out of your estate by protecting them in your prenup.

There are hundreds of good reasons to create a prenuptial agreement for your marriage. When two partners choose to use a prenup, they must disclose very sensitive information about their personal financial lives. Creating a prenup with a person you love is also a good way to address financial habits and expectations before you enter a marriage and ultimately build a stronger relationship.

If you believe that a prenup is a good fit for your next marriage, don’t hesitate to reach out to an experienced attorney who can help you create a strong document that represents and protects your interests and rights.
