Prenuptial agreements can be particularly appropriate where:

• One or both of you have substantial assets or income.
• One of you owns a business, or a share in a business.
• You have children from a previous relationship and want to protect assets for them.
• One or both of you have lived, or plan to spend a significant amount of time living, in another country.

The law regarding prenuptial agreements in England and Wales is complex and evolving. It is strongly recommended that both parties receive independent specialist advice before entering into an agreement. The agreement must be carefully drafted to ensure that it is likely to be upheld on divorce.
