A Message to International Couples:
You are marrying because you love your partner and you intend to make the relationship blossom. We are here to support you completely in that.
Of course, many marriages do not work out. That is particularly so with international marriages and marriages where the parties relocate overseas.
Agreements to always love, respect, and be kind to each other cannot be enforced. If mutual loving kindness evaporates, an international prenuptial agreement might turn out to be a true blessing for you.
A prenuptial agreement provides some clarity as to exactly what will occur on the financial level if the marital relationship ends.
Having clear rules is of special importance whenever there is an international dimension.
Without a prenuptial agreement, there may be all manner and kind of unnecessary disputes as to the jurisdiction, the governing law, the marital regime, the identity of marital property and so on.
Indeed the lack of a prenuptial agreement might encourage spouses to run to court in order to protect their interests, which can be unnecessarily harmful.
A fair prenuptial agreement may drastically simplify a future divorce that might otherwise be horrifically complex.
It is generally far better to have a clear agreement that is intended to govern the financial issues that might arise. This is most especially the case whenever the marriage has a strong international dimension.
