A prenup is a legally binding financial agreement that protects the assets of both people if their marriage or de facto relationship ends. Having such agreements in place may seem unnecessary before getting married, however they often provide peace of mind to the parties involved.
Our team specialises in family law matters and can assist with prenuptial agreements in Cairns and Townsville.
Before you sign an agreement
Financial and prenuptial agreements are becoming increasingly common and can save a lot of disagreement and conflict in the future should the relationship end. A prenuptial agreement (or a Binding Financial Agreement) is a legally enforceable agreement that defines each person’s financial and property rights if the marriage ends.
The agreement is entered into by two people before their marriage. Whilst it may not be the most romantic exercise for a couple to undertake, it can be necessary and give you peace of mind for the future, particularly for those wishing to protect their pre-existing assets.
