Are unvested RSUs granted before marriage considered separate or marital property?
Without a prenup, states like California, Washington, and New York apply time-rule apportionment formulas (such as the Hug and Nelson formulas) that convert a large percentage of pre-marital RSUs into marital property if they vest after your wedding date.
What is the cleanest way to handle RSUs and stock options in a prenup?
Most tech couples choose either (1) Separate by Grant Date (all grants signed before the wedding remain 100% separate regardless of when they vest) or (2) a Balanced Hybrid where pre-wedding grants stay separate and post-wedding annual refreshers are shared.
Can a $599 DIY prenup handle unvested RSUs, refreshers, and double-trigger equity?
Standard DIY templates rarely distinguish between grant date, cliff date, performance refreshers, and liquidity events. Vespera lets you model your exact equity split so your drafting attorney writes an enforceable custom clause.
