Jointly in The Globe And Mail: Prenups are costly and unpleasant. You should still get one.

Couple discussing prenuptial agreement

We’re pleased to see one of our founders, Aimee Schalles, featured in a recent article and podcast exploring why more young Canadians are interested in prenups and why so many still hesitate to follow through.

The piece highlights a growing gap: while interest in prenups is rising, actually signing one can feel complicated, expensive, and emotionally difficult. Aimee shares her perspective on what’s driving this trend, explaining both what can happen if couples don’t have a prenup in place and why the process itself can be a barrier.

From cost concerns to the discomfort of having these conversations during an already busy time like wedding planning, it’s clear that traditional approaches don’t always meet couples where they are. That’s exactly the problem Jointly was built to address, which was making prenups more accessible, collaborative, and easier to navigate.

It’s encouraging to see these conversations gaining traction. Prenups aren’t just legal documents, they’re tools for clarity, communication, and planning ahead with intention.
