Prenuptial agreements are especially common in second marriages, where both parties are more likely to have accumulated assets, carry financial obligations from prior relationships, and have children whose inheritance interests they want protected. A spouse entering a second marriage may have a retirement account, a home, or a business they want to keep separate, alongside genuine financial commitments to the new marriage they also want documented.
For Fort Myers residents in this situation, a prenuptial agreement can define how an existing estate plan interacts with the new marriage, establish mutual financial expectations, and protect children from a prior relationship without leaving those interests to chance or to a court's discretion later.
