Yes, a HelloPrenup can be enforced in court if you follow your state laws. This is also the opinion of Judge Patricia Garcia, a retired California Superior Court Judge with over 30 years of experience in Family Law.

As a judge, she has seen countless prenuptial agreements, from those drafted by top attorneys to those created online. According to Judge Garcia, online prenups, like those offered by HelloPrenup, can be just as valid as traditional prenups, as long as they meet the legal requirements of your state.

Why HelloPrenup Can Hold Up in Court

Judge Garcia highlights that HelloPrenup offers several features that can help ensure the enforceability of your prenuptial agreement:

  • Transparency and Education: HelloPrenup makes the prenup process clear and easy to understand, guiding you through the necessary steps and providing information about the legal requirements.

  • Collaborative Approach: The platform encourages open communication and negotiation between partners, ensuring both voices are heard and both parties understand the agreement.

  • Financial Disclosure: HelloPrenup emphasizes the importance of full financial disclosure, a critical factor in the enforceability of any prenup.

  • Access to Legal Counsel: HelloPrenup offers access to attorneys directly on its platform, providing an extra layer of support and guidance if needed.
