Prenuptial agreements define spouses' rights in divorce or death and are crucial for estate planning. They're important for second marriages, older first-time marriages, high-risk jobs, family businesses, large inheritances, or differing statuses. These agreements minimize asset disputes. Similarly, cohabitation agreements, which set terms different from standard property co-ownership, are essential for estate planning. Estate planners must be proficient in both areas to protect clients' assets.
