Family Law Attorney Meghan Freed’s Advice in Martha Stewart Weddings

Attorney Meghan Freed was recently interviewed by writer Yelena Moroz Alpert for her Martha Stewart Weddings article entitled Should You Live Together Before You Get Married?

The article explored  “the pros and cons of living together before you walk down the aisle.”  Meghan presented one potential con, from a legal perspective:

“When a couple goes through divorce, so do their assets. ‘The court is here to help you untangle yourself financially from your spouse,’ says Meghan Freed, attorney in Hartford, Conn. ‘If you break up before you marry, the court isn’t going to be much help in most cases.’ Separating is hard enough without having to figure out who gets to keep the new couch and who gets Fluffy.”
