are prenuptials the standard

Just curious... is that the way to always go in these scenarios?

I'm a lawyer and I used to do a lot of divorce work. No pre-nup. In general, they are probably a good idea but not for me.

If you have a family business, kids already, pension, will make a lot of money in the future, stocks, investments ECT, you better get one. And each state is different, so contact a lawyer in your area who deals with pre nups. Better safe than sorry, and is hard to start over.

This is a lawyer question, depending on which state you live in. Prenuptials can be worthless depending on the above criteria.

I say just curious, because I am just starting out and far from the I-do I suppose
