This is worth investigating when the former spouse is likely to go to court over every penny; you might want to consult a good family lawyer.

With your wedding only a month away, it's worth getting started on your prenup as soon as possible. We usually recommend putting together your prenup several months before you wed. The longer you wait, the more you risk later claims that the document was signed under pressure.
