Question: does a prenuptial agreement protect a spouses business created after or before a marriage? or both? i heard that prenups can protect your business, but is this limited to when your business was created?
Answer: A prenuptial agreement is, in essence, a contract. And you can contract for pretty much anything provided that there is an offer, assent, clear teams, consideration, and acceptance.
You can contract for assets already owned, or even assets not yet earned. They can protect your business, or any business that isn't even created yet. They can be as wide as narrow as you want, as long as the terms are clear and unambiguous.
Also, people need to stop giving definitive legal advice on here. Newsflash: contract law is state law. Even if you are correct regarding the law, that's the law as it pertains to your state, and not necessarily the asker's state.
I suggest you consult with a local attorney
Question: In Iowa, can a widow be stripped of her elective share without a prenuptial agreement? It was a late in life wedding for both, heirs have only prenup with Dad's signature, he provided generously outside the will for already wealthy widow, widow stole estate funds by forgery, now widow is demanding huge chunk of estate against Dad's will forcing loss of family business and even photos and possessions in heirs' childhood home for Iowa "elective share"!
Answer: If I understand you correctly, your father did not include his wife as an heir in his will. However under law she can elect to take AGAINST the will. State laws vary but in Iowa the spouse get 1/3 I believe. You can't disinherit a spouse.
Question: ladies would you sign a Prenuptial agreement? I believe that with all the divorce and cheating in the world it is only good sense.
Answer: While understanding the reasoning for one, unless one or the other of the couple is independently wealthy, I don't see the need for one. Each should take out of the marriage the material goods in which they entered it with and either divide the rest, or sell it for splitting the profit.
Question: Can you put a weight gain clause into a prenuptial agreement? I'm getting married soon and my future mother in law is a bit on the portly side and I need an escape plan just in case.
Answer: You are a pig...but I suppose if she hasn't seen through you yet, she deserves to be married to you...OINK!
Question: Do me and my girlfriend need a prenuptial agreement before we get married? We are both undergraduate college students with no assets. One of us has a little bit of debt.
Answer: Yes, yes, yes...I hope you never have to use it, but you both will get a better night's sleep if you do this. Life is unpredictable, don't you agree? Just think of it as a way to take care of each other, no matter what else happens. It is an act of love and a sign that you are adult enough to be married.
Best wishes to you both!
Question: What costs are involved in getting a prenuptial agreement? ex. like for the lawer, the papers, or ect.
Answer: Anywhere from $75 up to $150 and on up. It really depends on how complicated you would like to go. I recommend getting one. Also look to get a Power Of Attorney for medical and or property. The medical reasons are in case your incapacitated, someone will have the right to make medical decisions on your behalf.
Question: What is the average attorney fee for a prenuptial agreement in the State of New York? The couple resides in the New York City Metro Area. Extra credit: Can the prenupt prevent alimony from ever being awarded ?
Answer: I'd venture $500-600. Depending on how long you're married, the prenup becomes less and less valid over time.
Question: HELP, where can I find a prenuptial agreement for my cat and dog? My pets are having a wedding ceremony, cute.. I know! Before we can make it official I need to get my hands on a prenup so my pup Miguel doesn't take everything away from my cat Waffle incase it doesn't work out, she has a lot to risk in this relationship.
Answer: No wonder people think pets are nothing more than toys....the play wedding thing between 2 different species is bad enough but a pre-nup. C'mon get real. This is just a bit to far off the reality bus for me!
Question: Which Court and when does a Prenuptial Agreement get registered? We plan to maintain separate residences due to our jobs. I live in FLA He Lives in NY.
Answer: You don't have to file a prenuptial agreement with a court. You have it written up and reviewed by respective attorneys (it is advised you each retain your own) then the agreed and notarized document can be kept either with important papers in your possession, or on file with your attorney in hopes that it never has to be referred to.
Question: If it is as opponents of same-sex marriage say that same-sex marriages and civil unions are equivalent? legally, what legal objections do they have then to oppose same-sex marriage if they say they have nothing against civil unions?
If they do have legal objections to oppose same-sex marriage, then are they not lying about the fact that same-sex marriages and civil unions are equivalent legally?
If they don't have any legal objections, then why should be prohibiting same-sex couples from marrying if they don't have any legal objections to it?
Answer: Their objections have nothing to do with equality, fairness or legalities. it is only about their contempt and nothing else.
No where in the country is any civil union the equivalent of a marriage. And even if that were true in some jurisdictions, the law in Florida, Michigan, and Virginia specifically ban any type of union that is the equivalent of marriage.
Not only that, not even the same sex marriages in Mass, Iowa or California are equivalent as the DOMA prevents any federal recognition of those unions. And of the over 1000 rights, privileges, benefits and responsibilities that come with a marriage license, many are federal.
So the civil union argument is just a red herring to allow contempt-mongering homophobes to think they sound reasonable.
Question: Do you think that gay marriage will ever be legal in most of America or that abortion will ever be prohibited? It seems that these are the two main issues that today's Republican party is based on.
What do you think that these these issues will look like in the Obama presidency and in the future?
Answer: nope! Most Americans are against gay marriage, whether they like it or not! Barry is against gay marriage!
Question: MUSLIMS: Are there physical intimacies that are prohibited in marriage ?
Answer: Anal sex and sex during a woman's period.
Question: is there anything in the Bible prohibiting marriage between and virgin and non-virgin? Also, does one have to marry the first person they ever had sex with? is there anything in the Bible that requires this?
Answer: first adultery is a sin. so you have already sinned marriage doesn't make it right. marrying someone who committed adultery causes you to commit adultery. divorcing someone for any reason except adultery causes you to commit adultery and your next spouse to commit adultery.
Question: Is having sex before marriage prohibited by religion in Greek Orthodox church?
Answer: YES! Fornication is a sin in every religion that believes in Jesus Christ. My good friend is Greek Orthodox and she said, "yes".
Question: Is prohibiting Gay marriage an intrusion of Church into Government? It could be said that prohibiting gay marriage would be implementing a certain set of morals and ethics into our government. Do you think that religion still holds influence in the government? Does government in ideology have ethics at all? Should it be legal for our government to deny someone their "pursuit of happiness"?
What is your opinion?
Answer: It seems the Gay community keeps asking the question, repackaging it and reasking! The answer has been no, no and no again!
The pursuit of happiness has limits in any society.
Question: Why did Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) first allow temporary marriages & they prohibit them? This Sahih hadith shows that Prophet Muhammad first allowed "temporary marriages" which is no better than a form of prostitution & then disallowed them!
Sahih Muslim Book 008, Number 3253:
Rabi' b. Sabra reported that his father went on an expedition with Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) during the Victory of Mecca, and we stayed there for fifteen days (i. e. for thirteen full days and a day and a night), and Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) permitted us to contract temporary marriage with women. So I and another person of my tribe went out, and I was more handsome than he, whereas he was almost ugly. Each one of us had a cloaks, My cloak was worn out, whereas the cloak of my cousin was quite new. As we reached the lower or the upper side of Mecca, we came across a young woman like a young smart long-necked she-camel. We said: Is it possible that one of us may contract temporary marriage with you? She said: What will you give me as a dower? Each one of us spread his cloak. She began to cast a glance on both the persons. My companion also looked at her when she was casting a glance at her side and he said: This cloak of his is worn out, whereas my cloak is quite new. She, however, said twice or thrice: There is no harm in (accepting) this cloak (the old one). So I contracted temporary marriage with her, and I did not come out (of this) until Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) declared it forbidden.
Why permit such a thing in the first place, only to prohibit it later? Forget a Prophet, any good person would've prohibited it from the start!
@Ruchjat k: Does this even need Allah's gudance? Ostensibly by the war time, Allah had chosen Muhammad as hs Prophet so he must have shown decent morals, so couldn't he even prohibit such marriages from his innate good morals???
Answer: *Yawn*
This hadith stuff is getting so old. Why don't you guys look at Islam instead of hadiths?
Read my profile. Your "evidence" is quite flawed.
May Allah Guide us all.
Question: How many places is gay adoption prohibited? Portugal's gay marriage law specifically forbids married gay and lesbian couples from adopting children.
A number of states prohibit adoption unless the child is a adopted by married couples. Coincidentally they ban gay marriage
Answer: I'm not sure, but I do know that in the more civilized countries like Canada, Sweden, and Norway (the few best countries in the world to live in) they allow gay adoption and marriage. They don't allow fundamentalist freaks to take over their countries.
Question: Can any part of the bible be used to prohibit interracial marriages?
Answer: There is no such thing as inter-racial marriage. All people on earth have the same DNA that can be traced to a woman of African descent going back approximately 200,000 years. "All people are born pink with pink gums, white teeth, and like cars they arrive in different shapes and colours." Melanin is what determines the colour or lack of people. The ancient Israelites are seed of: Shem Japheth and Ham--mainly black and brown sons of Noah--Genesis 50:22, Judges16:19, Nahum 2:10, Job 30;30, Jeremiah 8:21, and Lamentations 5;10. Many of them married Ethiopians and Egyptians--Moses married an Ethiopian. In Joshua chapter 17, Manasseh, first born of Joseph and the rest of Joseph's children not only settled in what is called Jordan today but Joseph's wife was Egyptian also.
Bear in mind that the Romans and Greek people were called Gentiles--they were the roots of most white people today. If God had a problem with races he would not have sent his Jewish son --great grandson of one of the blackest men who ever lived, King Solomon--Song of Solomon 5:11 to die and include non-Jews--especially Gentiles in His New Covenant--Isaiah 11:10.
Boaz.
Question: Marriages break up because of infidelity, money troubles and alcohol abuse,why no Proposition to forbid those? Marriages are threatened by money troubles, lies, adultery and divorce. Where's the propositions prohibiting those
I stole this question from an answer to another question.
Why not legislatively forbid anyone with a DUI from getting married?
Why not forbid anyone who doesn't make three times minimum wage from getting married?
Why not forbid anyone who isn't a virgin from getting married?
Desi, careful, the question 2 in california is similar to Prop 8 in california
Answer: Haha! You stole the question from me!
Vote Obama 08, and if you're in California, vote No on Prop 8.
One more plug - vote Yes on Prop 2 for animal rights.
Question: If same-sex marriage is prohibited, who can gender reassigned people marry? Their birth certificate will say the opposite of what they physically are.
So, what you're telling me is that "technically" if my birth certificate would have a typo or if I had been gender reassigned and not changed my birth certificate, I could legally marry someone with a vagina even though I have a vagina.
Hmmm, seems to be a bit of a flaw there...
Answer: youre making my head hurt
