What is a pre-nuptial agreement?
A pre-nuptial agreement (also known as a ‘prenup’) is a contract agreed between you and your partner before you get married or enter a civil partnership.
A pre-nuptial agreement outlines exactly who owns what in terms of all of your belongings, assets, property and money.
Without a pre-nuptial agreement, in the event of a divorce, the courts starting position will generally be to divide everything 50/50 between you and your partner. A prenup can, therefore, help you provide some clarity and secure your future.
With extensive experience, Perduco Law solicitors can advise you on your options and provide you with further information on how a pre-nuptial agreement could work for you and your significant other. Speak to a member of our knowledgeable team today.
What is the purpose of a pre-nuptial agreement?
The main purpose of a pre-nuptial agreement, also known as a prenup, is to give you a level of clarity around how your assets will be divided in the event of a relationship breakdown. Other reasons why you might want a prenup include:
- to avoid arguments and confusion over your finances,
- protect your inherited finances and assets, and savings,
- ensure you retain ownership of any businesses,
- protect assets for any children from a previous relationship (their inheritance)
Can I draw up a pre-nuptial agreement after we’re married?
No. This is because pre-nuptial agreements can only be made before you marry your partner. However, if you and your partner both want to, you can make a post-nuptial agreement.
Our experienced family law solicitors at Perduco Law have extensive experience in drafting both pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements. Speak to us today.

“The advice and turnaround time provided was excellent.”
There are two elements to a divorce; there is the divorce itself and the financial settlement, which are both separate processes. The divorce process takes a minimum of 26 weeks.
Essentially, there are four ways to reach a financial settlement in a divorce. These are:
Financial Consent Order (No Assets, No Financial Disclosure)
Financial Consent Order (Assets, No Financial Disclosure)
Financial Consent Order (Assets, Full Financial Disclosure)

The cost of a divorce varies depending on whether there are any marital assets and if an agreement on those assets can be reached without the need for court proceedings.
Where children are involved, the best solution is for the parties to reach an amicable agreement between them on the child arrangements post divorce. If this isn’t possible, we can assist you in obtaining a Child Arrangements Order.
Where there is domestic abuse/violence in the marriage, there is a range of protective orders we can obtain for you in the family court, including:

Essentially, your solicitor will do everything involving both the divorce and financial settlement on your behalf, including
Advising you on your legal position and the best way forward.
Drafting all legal documentation
Liaising with the court and your ex-partner or their legal representative
Finalising your divorce and financial settlement
You will need to approve the documentation before it’s sent out and provide us with instructions following our advice.
You may also need to provide us with supporting documents such as marriage certificates and financial disclosure documents, e.g., bank and mortgage statements.
Fixed Fees means that we tell you your exact costs before you instruct us and detail the work we are going to do for that fixed fee. This enables you to know your costs in advance with no nasty surprises.
Nearly all family law firms charge on an hourly rate structure, which means everything they do on your case, whether it’s progressing your case or not, is chargeable in 6 minute units, so with hourly rates of £200-£450 per hour, these costs can quickly become disproportionate.
