Asset Protection

If you are considering moving in with your partner or getting married, you should obtain advice about whether you require a Binding Financial Agreement. This is sometimes referred to as a “Pre-Nup”.

These agreements are often popular when parties have children from previous relationship and wish to preserve their assets in the event of a separation.

They can also be popular when one party has significantly greater assets than the other, or is expecting to receive a substantial inheritance in the future that they want to protect.

It is understandable that it is a difficult conversation to have when you are happy and in love, however we believe that it is an important and necessary one that may save you significant heartache later down the track in the event things do not work out.

Regardless of what you discuss and agree with your partner, if it is not properly documented then it will not be binding in the event of a separation.

If you are unsure about whether you require a Financial Agreement please contact us to discuss.
