    Do You Really Need a Prenup (Marriage Contract or Cohabitation Agreement)?

    Considering moving in with someone? Or getting married? There is lots of advice out there that you really should get a cohabitation agreement or marriage contract. But, that sounds really unromantic. Is it really necessary? For some people, having a cohabitation agreement results in a more steady, predictable and long-lasting relationship. For others, it can result in savings of hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars – and also avoids a lot of bitterness about how family law works. For others, a cohabitation agreement does nothing. In this episode of the Ontario Family Law Podcast, Certified Specialist in Family Law, John Schuman, explains what cohabitation agreements can do, and when they make enough sense to get one despite how unromantic they seem. He also says when they make no sense, so there is no need to kill the mood. If you found this episode helpful, check out these episodes on similar topics: 96.
