A marriage contract is a contract that the newlyweds conclude about solving family life issues.
This, it might be said, is a kind of law for both parties, which consists of a number of issues that can concern the most diverse spheres of family life.
In the countries of the former Soviet Union, it can only be concluded before marriage, unlike other countries, where it can be signed by both married yet young people and married couples with experience. So what is a marriage contract and its features?
An expression of mistrust or, after all, a reasonable decision?
In most countries, the marriage contract is still cautious, and in response to a proposal to conclude it, we can hear "This is how you love me? We have not got married yet, but do you think that it will be during the divorce? So are you trusting me? "However, when life for some reason does not develop, often people complain that they were robbed, running around in courts, otszhivaya their property, crying that they were deceived, left with nothing. Therefore, in order that this did not happen, it is best to compile a document or an agreement that would fully protect you and your property from the encroachments of dishonest people.
Why is it needed?
The majority who enter into a contract treats the family as a firm in which there is a partnership, a common budget, each of the parties has its own responsibilities and everything is somehow regulated. True, this approach is not too romantic. However, in our modern world there is so much deceit and deception that it's simply not necessary to think about romance. Who concludes the contract, fearing that he will be "fooled", and who simply wants to ease his life and dot all the "i" and then do not regret when the end of family life came.
However, in the CIS countries marital contracts are still too small. The reasons are different: someone, madly falling in love, does not even want to think about a contract, to whom there is nothing to divide, and who, if possesses the state, relies on other ways and options for resolving family problems and various misunderstandings. There are many reasons for this, but you should not forget that before the law all are equal, and therefore, if you are not indifferent to your fate and fate, perhaps your future children, the conclusion of a marriage contract is very desirable.
Lawyers note the benefits of concluding a marriage contract. After all, you can often find out from them at receptions of spouses who, in the process of divorce, seek to divide up property, and who very much regret that they have not agreed in advance on this in writing.
Where is the truth?
Lawyers are lawyers, but every case, every spouse is individual and special. They can only advise, because no rule of law can fully guarantee us a happy family life. It does not seem to us that we already think so much about the material that sometimes we do not notice such simple, banal things.
Let's think: we are getting married. If we marry, therefore, we love, if we love, then we trust our beloved person to the most intimate. Then there is no such thing as "my, yours" ...
However, in families where work, career, own business do not leave room for true love, and the creation of a full-fledged family is only a fad in the list of cases, the marriage contract is quite necessary.
Remember that property, wealth, everything tangible are acquired things, that is, they are and will be. And family happiness, love, affection, tenderness, care you will not share any contract, because all our innermost riches are in our souls.
