Why you should never sign a prenup?

While prenups have their benefits and are worth considering, they're not for everyone. You shouldn't get a prenup if you can't afford it, want state laws to dictate what happens, don't plan to acquire more assets, or truly believe you won't get divorced.

Do marriages with prenups last?

Perhaps even more eye-opening statistics about prenuptial agreements: Despite half of all marriages ending in divorce, only 11% of couples state that there's a chance their marriage could end in divorce and less than 5% have a prenup in place to protect their interests should they divorce.

How do you get a prenuptial agreement before marriage?

For a prenuptial agreement to be successful, both parties have to be willing to participate in it and have to be completely honest about their individual assets and liabilities. The contract also has to be in place before the wedding takes place.
