Prenuptial Agreements All the Rage!

The marriage of two individuals usually calls for a celebration.

One very important thing that people often neglect to discuss is what is going to happen should the marriage take a turn for the worst. It’s safe to say that the institution of marriage is in a state of instability, as empty marriages are all the rage in the celebrity arena. With this being the case, it’s time for those considering marriage to also consider entering into a prenuptial agreement.
