In this episode of the Women Winning Divorce Podcast, Heather Quick dives into the complexities of prenuptial agreements, with a special focus on protecting women’s financial rights.
She explores the high-stakes scenario when a fiancé demands a prenup but refuses to pay for independent legal counsel, emphasizing the serious risks of signing such agreements without proper representation. Heather explains how prenups can dramatically impact financial security after divorce, why it’s crucial to insist on your own lawyer rather than using one chosen by your partner, and what protections should be included to safeguard the less financially secure spouse.
Listeners will learn to question a partner’s intentions, understand the laws in their state, ensure fairness in prenup terms—including sunset clauses and children’s financial needs—and avoid unknowingly signing away their rights. As Heather says, “You need someone independent… don’t have him pick your lawyer… I would be very careful with that.” This episode is essential listening for any woman navigating marriage, prenups, and the pursuit of long-term financial security.
