💍 Love is great. So is clarity.
When you're in a committed relationship, the law assumes you'll share your property 50/50 after 3 years - or sooner if you have children together. That includes your home, savings, and even your KiwiSaver.
But what if you don’t want that?
That’s where a Contracting Out Agreement (also called a prenup) comes in.
It’s a legally binding agreement that lets you and your partner decide how your property would be divided if you ever separate. No drama. No assumptions. Just a fair, clear plan you both agree on.
💡 And yes - it’s valid only if both of you get independent legal advice.
Whether you're moving in, getting married, or blending families - it’s never too early to plan ahead.
📞 Chat to us today about how a Contracting Out Agreement can protect what matters most to you - your relationship and your future.

💰 Cheap Wills Can Be Costly 💔
A $50 online will might seem like a bargain… until it costs your loved ones thousands in legal fees, delays, or even court battles.
Poorly drafted wills are one of the most common causes of estate disputes. In fact, some experts estimate a large proportion of wills could be open to challenge—often due to unclear wording, missing formalities, or a lack of legal advice.
We’ve seen firsthand how DIY or online wills can go wrong. Your will is one of the most important documents you’ll ever sign. It deserves expert care.
✔️ Get the right advice
✔️ Avoid costly mistakes
✔️ Protect your loved ones
📞 Talk to our team today about creating a will that actually works when it’s needed most. Your loved ones will be grateful you did.
