SMG Attorneys provides comprehensive legal advice and drafting of Ante-Nuptial Contracts (ANCs) in accordance with South African matrimonial property law. An ANC is a crucial legal agreement entered into before marriage and determines how assets and liabilities are managed during and after the marriage. Our attorneys take the time to explain the differences between marriages in community of property, out of community of property with accrual, and out of community of property without accrual. We ensure that each contract is tailored to our clients’ personal, financial, and future planning needs. By offering clear guidance and professionally drafted agreements, SMG Attorneys helps clients protect their interests, avoid future disputes, and enter marriage with confidence and legal certainty.
