About
Drafting a prenuptial agreement requires more than inserting assets into a template. This class teaches the structured process your firm should follow to create prenups that are clear, comprehensive, and positioned for enforceability. We begin with client intake and goal identification: • Asset protection • Debt allocation • Income and appreciation treatment • Alimony waivers or limitations • Estate planning coordination Participants will learn how to prepare complete financial disclosures and schedules, how to document full and fair disclosure, and how to avoid common drafting mistakes that later fuel enforceability challenges. The drafting portion of this class covers: • Definitions of separate vs. marital property • Treatment of appreciation and commingling • Business ownership protections • Retirement accounts and investment growth • Debt responsibility provisions • Attorney’s fees clauses • Severability and modification provisions • Execution logistics and best practices We also address risk management considerations, including timing before the wedding, documenting voluntariness, recommending independent counsel, and maintaining a defensible file. By the end of this class, participants will have a repeatable workflow for drafting prenuptial agreements that protect clients and withstand scrutiny. Editable drafting templates included. _______________________________ Want to take it a step further? Want training tailored to your firm?
