so a prenuptial agreement I think can be a
very sensitive topic for couples and I
know sometimes consider taboo I actually
encourage people to use it as a great
opportunity to talk about important uh
matters that are going to be necessary
as partnership and a marriage New York
State we consider a marriage an economic
partnership so you should be talking
about the economics and a prenuptual
agreement is designed to help the two
people in the marage decide what the
financial outcome will be in the event
of a divorce instead of the default of
New York State telling you what the law
would be and one little you know way I
try to explain it to people or a good
analogy is insurance right you don’t buy
a home hoping you’re going to need your
homeowners insurance but of course you
bought it you don’t buy a car thinking
you’re going to need your auto insurance
but of course you have it you don’t
enter a marriage thinking you’re ever
going to need the prenup but it’s an
insurance just in case to have it God
forbid the marriage doesn’t work out
