During prenuptial mediation an impartial professional assists people who are considering marriage or cohabitation to explore and reach agreement on relevant financial and family matters. The couple identifies the issues, considers the options, and understands the impact. They mutually reach decisions regarding ownership in or division of property, support obligations, family issues, or other matters that they deem important.
