Prenups - and other forms of wealth planning and protection - can provide certainty when a relationship breaks down.

A major source of stress for clients is not knowing at the outset what the financial outcome of their divorce will be. Far from being the preserve of the super-rich, sensible wealth protection strategies - including agreements like prenups (properly called pre-nuptial agreements) and cohabitation agreements - are increasingly being used to provide that certainty, dealing with problems before they arise.

We regularly help a variety of clients plan for the future. With an unrivalled multi-disciplinary approach, a network of contacts stretching across the globe and a wealth of practical experience, you can be confident in our ability to advise you whatever circumstances.  

Our experience

Our considerable experience goes hand-in-hand with our ability to draw upon specialist expertise from across the firm.  It really is a team effort! Clients we have recently worked with include: 

  • Business owners and entrepreneurs who are looking to protect their businesses for future generations.
  • People who are marrying for a second time, wanting to pass on their wealth to their children from a previous relationship.
  • Beneficiaries of trusts.
  • International families where wealth protection has involved co-ordinating advice from a variety of different countries.
  • Couples at the start of their lives together looking for cohabitation agreements and declarations of trust to protect property and financial interests.
