Common questions
Why do traditional prenup lawyers cost $8,000 to $15,000+?
When an unaligned couple hires two family attorneys billing $450 to $750/hr each, the first lawyer drafts a protective one-sided contract and the second lawyer sends back dozens of redlines. You pay thousands for lawyers to negotiate topics you could have decided together at home.
Why is a $599 DIY online prenup template risky?
Unrepresented $599 boilerplate templates lack independent legal counsel sign-off, which automatically invalidates spousal support waivers in strict states like California and frequently fails when challenged over unvested RSUs, LLCs, or unequal down payments.
How does Vespera ($249) save $4,500 to $7,500+ on lawyer fees?
Vespera sits upstream of your attorneys. Both partners resolve their asset rules privately first and hand their lawyers a reconciled Attorney Packet, cutting billable attorney time from 12+ hours down to 3 to 5 hours total.
