Prenuptial agreements, often seen as unromantic, are gaining popularity as a practical way to protect assets and provide clarity in marriage. Attorney Brittany V. Carter explains that these legal documents, signed before marriage, outline asset and debt division in case of separation. Couples can draft them online or consult local attorneys for personalized advice. Once agreed upon, both partners and their lawyers sign in front of a notary public and two witnesses, with the option to record the document at the courthouse for added security. For married couples, postnuptial agreements offer a similar solution, though they may require court approval in certain states. Carter emphasizes the importance of considering some form of marital agreement for any couple, as its about being prepared for lifes uncertainties and protecting both individuals within the strength of their union.
