SURREY, BC

Considering a prenup before your Surrey wedding? Done right, it protects the relationship, not just the assets.

A marriage contract in British Columbia is only enforceable if both parties had independent legal advice and full financial disclosure — cutting corners on either one is the most common reason these agreements get thrown out years later.

Prenuptial Agreement Lawyer in Surrey — what to expect

A marriage contract in British Columbia is only enforceable if both parties had independent legal advice and full financial disclosure — cutting corners on either one is the most common reason these agreements get thrown out years later.

Our Surrey family lawyers draft agreements that hold up: full disclosure documented properly, each party represented independently (we can act for one side and refer the other to an independent colleague), and terms that reflect what actually matters to you rather than a generic template pulled off the internet. We also draft cohabitation agreements for common-law couples in British Columbia, who have different default rights than married couples and often need this protection even more.

What this can cover

  • Asset and debt division terms
  • Spousal support waivers or limits (where enforceable)
  • Business and inheritance protection clauses
  • Cohabitation agreements for common-law couples

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Questions Surrey clients ask first

Is a prenup actually enforceable in British Columbia?

Yes, provided both parties had independent legal advice, full financial disclosure, and the agreement wasn’t signed under pressure close to the wedding date.

Can a prenup cover child support?

No — child support is the child's right, not the parents', and can't be waived or capped by agreement.

We’re not married — do we need a cohabitation agreement?

If you’re living together in British Columbia, common-law rights differ meaningfully from married rights, and an agreement is often the only way to set your own terms.
