Ohio Prenuptial Agreements: What to Know Before You Get Married
If you’re planning to get married in Ohio, a prenuptial agreement can help clarify financial expectations and protect both partners.
An Ohio prenuptial agreement is a contract signed before marriage that outlines how assets, debts, and financial responsibilities will be handled if the marriage ends.
Ohio Prenup Requirements
Ohio courts typically look at whether:
- The agreement was entered into voluntarily
- Assets and debts were fully disclosed
- Both parties understood the terms
Courts may also consider whether each party had the opportunity to consult independent legal counsel.
Why Ohio Couples Consider Prenups
Prenuptial agreements can be especially helpful for couples who:
- Own real estate or significant assets
- Have children from prior relationships
- Own or expect to grow a business
- Want to reduce uncertainty and protect both spouses
Starting the process early allows time for review, discussion, and informed decision-making.
