The process for divorce in customary marriages follows the same procedure as in civil unions and marriages, including drafting a divorce summons, having the court issue it, getting a sheriff to deliver it to your spouse, and going before a Magistrate of the Court to prove an irretrievable breakdown within the marriage.
Antenuptial contracts can benefit spouses by removing the fear of financial loss in divorce and protecting them from their partner’s past and future debt.
Setting up an antenuptial contract before marriage ensures that your assets are protected in case of divorce or death. Also, if one of the spouses gets into debt or needs to be liquidated, the other spouse’s assets are protected. There are two types of antenuptial contracts: with or without accrual.
