Getting Married? Must Wait 7 Days Before Signing a Prenup.

Jeffrey Lalloway, Esq., who practices family law in Orange County, California, continues to write witty posts on prenups and other aspects about the institution of marriage.

With a good prenup also comes estate planning as explained in this post.

What I wanted to say, however, was that a valid prenup must be signed at least 7 days before the wedding or marriage takes place as explained in Jeffrey's post. Further, a "stronger" prenup is signed at least 30 days before a wedding or marriage if not longer.

If you are considering a prenup, consult with an attorney to better understand why you need a prenup especially if you divulge your assets to your attorney. Your attorney can also give you advice on how to approach drafting a prenup with your significant other. Just be sure to give your attorney enough time to start the process... six months before the wedding would be nice.
