This thorough approach ensures nothing is overlooked and both parties understand their rights and obligations.
1. Initial Consultation
We discuss your circumstances, assets, concerns, and objectives to understand your prenuptial agreement requirements fully. Our prenuptial agreement solicitors explain the legal framework, benefits, and limitations of such agreements while addressing any concerns you may have.
2. Financial Disclosure
Both parties provide full financial disclosure including assets, liabilities, income, and future prospects to ensure the prenuptial agreement is comprehensive and fair. This transparency is crucial for creating enforceable agreements that courts will respect.
3. Agreement
Drafting our specialists create a detailed prenuptial agreement reflecting your wishes and protecting your interests while ensuring fairness and legal compliance. We use clear language while ensuring the document meets all legal requirements for potential enforceability.
4. Independent Legal Advice
We ensure both parties receive separate legal representation to strengthen the agreement’s enforceability and demonstrate that both parties understood and freely agreed to the terms. This independent advice is crucial for preventing future challenges.
5. Signing and Storage
Once finalised, we oversee the proper signing process with appropriate witnesses and securely store your prenuptial agreement documents. We provide certified copies and guidance on when the agreement might need reviewing or updating.

Request A Call BackAre prenuptial agreements legally binding in the UK?
While not automatically legally binding like in some other countries, properly drafted prenuptial agreements carry significant weight in divorce proceedings. Recent case law shows courts increasingly follow well-prepared agreements, particularly when both parties received independent legal advice and made full financial disclosure.
When should we arrange a prenuptial agreement?
Ideally, begin the process at least 3-4 months before your wedding to allow sufficient time for proper consideration, negotiation, and independent legal advice for both parties. Rushing the process close to the wedding date can weaken the agreement’s enforceability.
Can we include arrangements for children in our prenuptial agreement?
Child arrangements cannot be predetermined in prenuptial agreements as courts always prioritise children’s welfare at the time of any dispute. However, we can address financial support for children from previous relationships and provisions for their inheritance.
How much does a prenuptial agreement cost?
Costs vary depending on the complexity of your assets and the agreement’s scope. Our prenuptial agreement solicitors provide transparent fee estimates after understanding your requirements during the initial consultation, with fixed fees available for straightforward cases.
