What a premarital agreement can do for your business:

  • If you own a business in part or in whole before you are married, a premarital contract can specify how that interest will be kept separate from community property.
  • If you are involved in a family business before marriage, a prenuptial agreement can ensure the interest remains in the family in the event of your death or divorce.
  • If you have business partners, a premarital agreement can provide them with control over management of the business in the event of your death, disability, or divorce.
  • If your business grows during the course of your marriage, an antenuptial agreement can protect the increased value from being considered community property.
  • If you contribute to the growth of your spouse's business during the course of your marriage, a premarital contract can ensure that you receive credit for a share of that growth.

California law regarding prenup contracts is constantly changing and growing. If you have a business interest, your premarital agreement will cover complex issues, including business valuation. It is essential that you work with a lawyer with the appropriate experience in family financial contracts.
