A pre-nup is to protect the assets you bring IN to the marriage. It doesn’t sound like it could apply to your nephew.
“A pre-nup is to protect the assets you bring IN to the marriage.”
Not in the State of Colorado. Just the opposite. Personal ownership is well defined for assets owned prior to marriage in Colorado. These are never in dispute. The only property disputable as to division is property acquired DURING the marriage. A pre-nup establishes the ownership of such acquired marital property, in particular, how the ownership may be different than the state defines it absent a pre-nup agreement.
