Prenuptial Agreement Lawyers in Leeds

Prenuptial Agreement Lawyers in Leeds

The prenup process often originates with the partner who feels he or she has the most to lose financially should the marriage or civil partnership fall apart. In most cases, they are arrived at through long-distance negotiations between lawyers representing the different parties. This can lead to a breakdown in communication and an agreement no one is particularly content with. At Wenup we have a better way. We provide a platform where both partners can work together to create a prenup that will be vetted by a team of experienced family lawyers serving customers in Leeds to ensure its enforceability.

Why Wenup?

If a relationship is to overcome the inevitable obstacles and issues that arise whenever two people share a life together, there has to be a high degree of trust. It is helpful for both partners to have full visibility of each other’s respective financial situations and clarity over how aligned they are on financial matters, which can often be a taboo but highly contentious subject for married couples.

The Wenup process provides couples with a way to ensure the best interests of both parties are addressed prior to or after getting married or entering a civil partnership. It’s an innovative way of fostering transparency and trust while at the same time reducing the odds that lingering financial doubt and uncertainty can tear a relationship apart.

The Wenup Process

The process of creating a fair and enforceable prenup that both partners can get behind starts by registering with Wenup. Once registered you will have access to our materials that cover the basic principles behind the process of asset division. We encourage you to avail yourself of this information before moving on to the next step in the process.

Once you have both learned more about the division of assets and have agreed on the shape you would like your agreement to take, it’s time to fill out our online questionnaire. Typically this process takes about 15 minutes and it’s important you are both present while filling it out.

After completing the questionnaire and paying the Wenup fee, we will provide each of you with access to highly experienced family lawyers serving customers in Leeds. They will work closely with each of you separately to ensure you each understand the provisions of the agreement and they will make certain the agreement will pass muster in court, should it ever end up there.

During the process of reviewing your agreement, the lawyers may encounter issues that would undermine its enforceability. Should that happen, they will alert you to the issue and work with you to resolve it in a way that provides you both with an agreement that has the best chance of being legally enforceable should you or your partner ever need to rely upon it.

About the Wenup Process

Couples come to us with a general idea regarding how they would like to split their common assets, should it ever become necessary to do so. We then provide a platform for drafting an agreement. Our platform involves an online questionnaire which typically takes about 15 minutes to complete.

After paying the modest Wenup fee, we provide access to highly experienced family lawyers in Leeds - barristers who specialise in these matters - who will schedule one-on-one sessions with each of you and go over the details of the agreement to ensure it is legally compliant.

Reliability

We make sure every Wenup complies with the 3 main factors used in court to determine the validity of such an agreement:

1. That the agreement was entered into freely by both parties.
2. That each party fully understood the implications of the agreement when they signed it.
3. That each partner was given separate, independent legal advice.

Our agreements comply with legal requirements, so you can have peace of mind that your money is well spent.
