prenuptial agreements  

Definición

  • Prenuptial agreements (also known as premarital agreements, prenuptial marriage contracts, and antenuptial contracts) have a long history. Early examples include the ketubah in traditional Jewish marriage and the mahr (or sadaq) in Islamic marriages, both of which specify the sum of money the husband should pay the wife when the marriage takes place or if the marriage is dissolved.
