What’s the legal position regarding pre-nuptial agreements in the UK? I am a British citizen about to get married to a British woman. We plan to remain in England. There is a significant imbalance in assets: I have in excess of £1m, including equity in my house and investments. My wife-to-be has a few tens of thousands in savings. There is also more wealth in my family which I am likely to inherit. I would like to ringfence my existing assets and potential inheritance from any break-up. Is a pre-nuptial worth the hassle and how would I go about drawing one up?
