  Divorce

Divorce is the legal dissolution of a marriage, enacted by a court decree or judgment. After a divorce, there are often legal disputes regarding child custody, the splitting of assets, and alimony. Because the court decides how to allocate the assets in the event of a dispute, some people decide to sign a prenuptial agreement prior to the marriage which would protect these assets.
