prenuptial agreement
Before-vows legal contract
A prenuptial agreement is a legal contract that two people sign before getting married, specifying how their assets and debts will be divided if the marriage ends in divorce or death.
Often shortened to prenup, these agreements typically address property division, spousal support, and protection of assets acquired before the marriage.
Her lawyer advised her to get a prenup before marrying into the wealthy family.
Prenuptial agreements were once associated mainly with the rich but have become increasingly common.
