Document background
A Prenup To Keep Finances Separate is essential for couples who wish to maintain financial independence within their marriage. This document is particularly relevant in the United States where state laws vary regarding marital property rights. It's commonly used when one or both parties have substantial assets, business interests, or inheritance expectations they wish to protect. The agreement must comply with state-specific requirements and typically includes detailed financial disclosures, provisions for keeping property separate, and clear terms about income and debt management during marriage. It's crucial that both parties receive independent legal counsel to ensure the agreement's enforceability.
