Redefining Commitment: The 21st-Century Prenup
Hosted by Deborah Moskovich and Steve Peck | Featuring Special Guest Ed Weiner
Introducing a Groundbreaking Conversation on Prenups, Postnups & Cohabitation Agreements
In this milestone episode of The Smart Divorce, we delve into one of the most vital yet misunderstood aspects of modern relationships: legal agreements that protect love, partnership, and personal assets. This is no ordinary discussion—it’s an “achievement episode” in divorce education, setting the foundation for what would later evolve into the Soft Landing Podcast. Renowned divorce attorney Ed Weiner—recognized by Worth magazine as one of the top 10 divorce lawyers in the U.S.—joins hosts Deborah Moskovich and Steve Peck for an inspiring, clarifying, and deeply humane look at how we can protect what matters most when love and law intersect.
- Understand why Ed calls prenups the "engagement ring of the 21st century"
- Explore the differences between prenups, postnups, and cohabitation agreements
- Learn how these contracts can actually enhance trust and clarity in relationships
- Gain powerful insights into fairness, financial transparency, and protecting family legacies
The Start of a Smarter, More Humane Approach to Separation
Whether you're contemplating marriage, moving in together, or navigating a complex family dynamic, this episode is your invitation to rethink protection not as a barrier to love—but as an extension of it.
