Pre-Nuptial Agreements. Protecting Your Assets Before Marriage & How To Make Sure Yours Holds Up!
Think signing a prenup means your money, property or business is automatically protected if you divorce? Think again.
In this episode brought to you by Get Legally Speaking, Hatti Suvari is joined by leading family law barrister Jonathan Tod, who has over 35 years’ experience to reveal what prenups really do — and why some fail when couples need them most. Together they unpack the situations that can completely change the outcome: what happens if there is not enough money to meet both parties' "needs" after a separation, whether children can affect what was originally agreed, and why assets you thought were protected may still come into play. Jonathan also explains how prenups should be drafted to protect property, businesses, inheritance and family wealth, what “meeting someone’s needs” actually means, and the common mistakes that can seriously weaken an agreement — from poor drafting and lack of disclosure to signing too close to the wedding. Whether you are bringing £50,000, £500,000 or £5 million into a marriage, this is the episode to listen to before assuming a prenup has you fully protected. Because when it comes to prenups, the real question is not simply whether you have one. It is whether yours will actually hold up. All in plain and simple English. No legal jargon.
