Common Questions

Prenuptial FAQ

When should we start the prenup process?
Ideally, begin at least three to six months before the wedding. This allows time for open discussion, drafting, review by both parties' attorneys, and revisions without time pressure.
Does my partner need their own attorney?
Yes. For a prenuptial agreement to be enforceable in Texas, both parties should have independent legal representation. This protects the validity of the agreement and ensures both voices are heard.
Can a prenup cover future assets?
Yes. A well-drafted prenuptial agreement can address how future income, business growth, real estate purchases, and retirement contributions will be treated during the marriage and in the event of a divorce.
What makes a prenup unenforceable?
In Texas, a prenup may be unenforceable if it was signed under duress, without adequate disclosure of assets, without independent counsel, or if its terms are unconscionable. Sarah ensures every agreement meets enforceability standards.
