*This document is provided for informational and educational purposes only and is NOT a substitute for legal advice. Prenuptial agreements have strict state-specific enforceability requirements — full financial disclosure, each party having independent legal counsel, and signing well before the wedding (not the night before) are commonly required for a court to uphold one. EACH party should have their own attorney; one attorney cannot represent both sides.*
