The Athlete Prenup Plan
Protecting what you built, planning like a professional, and doing it so it holds
For an athlete, the business that is your career earns enormous money in a compressed window, and most of it lands during the years you are most likely to be married. In California, what you earn during the marriage is not just yours by default. A prenup is how you decide the rules on the front end, together, instead of letting a court decide them later.
“Early and clean beats late and rushed.”
