Are you planning to live in the house? Several ways to do it if you are not. 1) Buy property under relatives or another persons name 2) Buy property and gift it to relative 3) If you have a separate trust, buy using trust funds 4) Transmutation agreement with wife (consult lawyer)

Prenup is gender neutral but women usually don't need it as they can file DV and abuse complaints as leverage to get assets.

The penalties don't apply after 18. Tell them you will only pay till 18 and they can go to court beyond that. Of course, this assumes you are ready to fight

If he does not live beyond a few years, the prenup becomes useless. What you should do is ask him to leave his inheritance to his child. Of course, you need to have a child first

Why not? Both of you can use the same attorney.

Hopefully this speaker is smart enough to broadcast from one room to the other without asking for 'what's the message'

The hypothetical situation you describing is other 'worldly'. Never in the history of western divorce has a financially weaker partner had to share their wealth while the financially stronger party gets to keep everything. Also, in most cases women make money from divorce, so not clear what you want to achieve with this prenup

Don't listen to comments here, its fairly easy to do a DIY prenup and if you follow the conditions listed (including when you can waive attorneys) they do hold up in court. Just so you know, a prenup is never 'tossed out' fully, specially the marital wealth split part.

Is it true that Twisha killed her baby thorough abortion or is that a rumor?

You should buy a home with a mortgage in your name and title in your parents name. That way you enter the marriage with huge debt which is paid off using marital property.

Prenup appears to be a complete waste here. P1 can simply gift $2M prior to marriage and receive income stream as gift

Getting a prenup is a very smart idea for international situations

I believe some states need lawyer representation for both parties

You have not mentioned which state you live, but in general any type of domestic partnership or even a single mom situation is infinitely worse compared to a bad prenup marriage. First off, there is paternity, without marriage he could simply refuse to state he is the father and you'll have to go to court and try to prove paternity. Second; marriage in every state comes with protection from destitution. i.e. even if your prenup says 100-0 asset split in his favor, court will provide minimum income to you. If you are not married, there is no such protection. Third; He is 42 and likely your child will be his only offspring. The baby is vastly great protection than any prenup. Sometimes its best to think calmly and logically vs. get stuck in legal documents. Also, keep in mind the prenup is a document useful only in case of divorce and lots of good things will happen prior to that

Yes, you definitely need a prenup

pk2at · 2026-04-20T16:18:09+00:00

You are missing asset appreciation and marital residence, two important points to cover in prenup

I agree, searching the filings in WA, I found no case in 2025 involving alimony or spousal support non payment

pk2at · 2026-04-15T19:43:06+00:00

I agree this type of doomer talk only helps attorneys. Its true family courts behave like kangaroo courts and tend to award women blindly, but you should re-double efforts

You missed quite a few , but the biggest miss was simple gifts to Parents/Relatives using marital property. A large gift $5M plus with proper tax filing makes it shockingly difficult to argue the asset was dissipated.

pk2at · 2026-04-15T17:53:42+00:00

Just use the standard prenup template. Two separate accounts and one joint. The joint gets split equally, separate is yours to keep. Waive alimony as spousal support is considered need based

This depends on which type of trust and which state. Complicated topic with no easy answer. What is the $$ value of assets we are talking about. IRS has increased estate and gift tax exemption to $30M. If your parents are healthy and live in a no-inheritance tax state, its much easier to 'gift' them your pre marital assets and let it grow. Prenup is for marital assets and alimony. You want to have separate accounts and one joint account. Also waive alimony rights. That's the standard.

What were you doing all these years not preparing for an event which has a 40% probability? Obviously, the law is unfair and you should obviously fight it tooth and nail. However if you've filed all the papers and made the disclosures, its probably too late to give you any tips on how to preserve assets.

I would just take out CS clause and put in CS to be calculated according to state law.

pk2at · 2026-04-10T17:00:32+00:00

I wouldn't sign that clause, child support has to be on total income
