Ayesha Vardag spoke to City AM about the importance of prenuptial agreements for an column exploring the role of financial and tax planning within marriage.
Ayesha, who won the case which made prenups enforceable in England and Wales, said it would be “lunatic” not to have one in place. She also explained to the paper the importance of fairness to forming a binding agreement, as well as the potentially expensive outcome of not having one in place.
She also suggested that agreeing a prenup was a good way of “agreeing in the best times what would happen in the worst”.
