My wife and I were close to separating, but thankfully, things were resolved amicably. However, knowing her temper and tendency to be self-centered, I fear things could escalate again. We’ve covered all the marriage expenses without any financial contribution from her family. Yet, she remains dissatisfied. She’s simply not driven and doesn’t seem to care much. Before things get complicated, I want to clear everything legally. I’m planning to discuss with her family what we’ve given them and vice versa, putting it down in writing. I want to avoid any future problems for both our families, especially since we’ve invested a significant amount in this marriage. There’s a chance they might try to downplay our contributions. Is a pre-nuptial agreement the right approach to ensure everything is transparent and protected?

While a pre-nuptial agreement is usually signed before marriage, it’s not a suitable option in your scenario as the marriage already exists. Instead, you can discuss a post-nuptial agreement with your wife, outlining financial contributions, expectations, and liabilities. This agreement, along with the documented exchange of expenses with her family, will provide clarity and protect both parties’ interests.
