What will it cost?

Do you actually need a prenup?

Plenty of couples do not, and nobody selling prenups will tell you that. Six questions. Nothing you enter leaves your browser.

1. Does either of you own a business or a stake in one?
2. Has either of you been married before?

Especially relevant if there are children from that marriage.

3. Is one of you bringing significantly more in, or expecting an inheritance?
4. Is one of you carrying significant debt?

Student loans, business debt, tax debt. This one runs in the opposite direction: an agreement can protect the partner who did not sign for it.

5. Will one of you step back from work to raise children or move for the other's career?
6. Have you two talked about money properly?

Debts, salaries, what you each own, what you expect. Actually said out loud.

This needs JavaScript. The short version: a prenup earns its keep when there is a business, a prior marriage with children, a big gap in what you each bring in, serious debt, or a career being set aside. If none of those apply, you probably do not need one.

Your answer appears here. It might well be "no". That is a real result and we will say so.
