Prenuptial or Marriage Contract Ontario Canada with Georgina Carson

Is a marriage contract in Ontario important? Host Elizabeth Naumovski sits down with Georgina Carson, partner with MacDonald & Partners LLP, to discuss Cohabitation, Separation & Divorce, and prenuptial or marriage contracts. Life isn’t as traditional as it used to be. More couples are choosing to live together, rather than get married & many are entering relationships without thinking about the commitments they are making. Even though they are entering these relationships in a very non-traditional way, when they decide to leave, they get out in a very traditional way. This is why the agreement in the form of a contract is critical Whether you are cohabitating or married, make sure that you protect your finances & assets before you move in or sign the marriage licence. Talk to your partner or future spouse about what happens to the assets if you do break up in the future. It`s better to talk about these things when you are getting along & enjoying each other, rather than when emotions are high & there is no way to discuss things rationally.
