Can You Get A Prenup Online

Prenuptial agreements can most definitely be obtained via online solicitors or legal services providers such as ourselves, and what’s more, you don’t need to spend over £1,000+ VAT on having a prenup contract drafted.

Prenuptial agreements are commonly referred to as ‘prenups’, which are legal contracts entered into prior to marriage that document how assets such as property, pensions, or money will be dealt with in the event of a divorce.
These types of agreements have been used in many other legal jurisdictions for years; however, over the last 10 years, the English & Welsh courts in the UK have come to recognise them.
Prenups in England and Wales are on the rise after multiple high-profile celebrity cases and the Radmacher case, where the supreme court upheld the pre-nuptial agreement.
So, what is a prenup and can I get one online? Let’s take a quick look and see what the law says about getting a prenup agreement online.

Who is the best online prenup service?
Here are two highly recommended options, which can save you time, stress, and a lot of money when compared to hiring a local high street solicitors firm.
1) OLS Solicitors – Fixed Fee Service for £699 + VAT
OLS Solicitors are a boutique law firm with offices located in central England & south Wales and specialise in family law. They have helped thousands of clients in the UK obtain a prenup without breaking the bank.
They offer a fixed fee service for £699 plus VAT, which is a fully represented service that includes legal advice, to ensure you receive the best advice before getting started.
We encourage our clients to get quotes from several high street solicitors before coming back to us because we know they are 3 or 4 times more expensive. Also, and more importantly, they often provide a less efficient service than us.
If you are interested in receiving legal advice or the prenup drafting services from OLS Solicitors you can view their services on their website.
2) Divorce-Online – Fixed Fee Service for £699 Including VAT
Our Prenuptial Agreement Service is drafted by prenuptial agreement solicitors for just £699 including VAT. This fixed-fee service involves our qualified family law solicitors drafting the agreement to your individual specification.
A Judge, in the event of divorce proceedings, would look into whether both parties received adequate legal advice before signing the prenup, which is why it’s essential that you obtain legal advice before getting started.
As part of our service, you would receive professional legal advice on the implications of signing the agreement.
How often should you update a prenup?
As with other such agreements, prenuptial agreements should be periodically re-evaluated and updated to reflect any changes in your circumstances, e.g. buying a new home or having children.
We would advise you to look at your agreement every 4-5 years to ensure it’s up-to-date and accurate; this agreement then becomes a post-nuptial agreement.
Post-nuptials are also looked upon favourably by the courts in the event of a divorce.
