If you’re not even sure how to bring it up maybe you should rethink getting married at all.

In the State of Louisiana, the spouse is not entitled to a thing gained before the marriage, only assests gained after.
Just saying.
Just saying.

Generally, what I have always done is bring up pre-nup and not wanting kids usually in first couple weeks of a relationship.

True story:
First assignment out of law school for my buddy was to go to a church on wedding day with a prenup. If the bride signed, my buddy made the phone call and the groom showed. If she didn’t sign, groom stayed at the hotel.
She signed.
Ain't love grand??

I worked with a young women who had come from a modest background.
She was engaged to a wealthy young man whose family owned a profitable business.
I will add the young women was an attractive red head with pretty green eyes and a cute, tight body going about 5'6 120.
About 6 weeks before the wedding the pre-nup was brought up. The man saying he did not want one but his parents were just trying to protect the business.
The girl said no.
The man's parents thought they could convince her to sign by buying the couple a nice house as a wedding present.
The girl asked if the house was to be both of theirs or just his house that she got to live in at the discretion of her new husband.
The wedding was called of 2 weeks before the day and at the time both parties thought the other would give in before the wedding.
The wedding never happened.
The girl then went through the most amazing transformation I have ever seen.
She gained 140 pounds and was over 250 pounds.
You could almost watch this women get fatter each week.
Most of the guys at work said the man really dodged a bullet.
My theory was she knew she could only maintain her thin body for so long and there was a fat girl in there ready to eat which is why she was so adamant there would be no pre-nup.

Preferably before the proposal but when marriage is a serious consideration have a full financial discussion --- income, assets, accounts, debts, retirement, everything --- then bring up the issue of the prenup if you think it is needed or wise. Make it a part of a family financial strategy.

Good luck finding a judge to enforce it when it was signed under those circumstances. Judge won’t endorce it and probably think less of the dude for pulling that. Brilliant legal strategy.

I think it depends on how far along you are in the relationship. If early, start talking about it now. If it late in the process and includes family money/interests you are protecting, have your parents or their advisors bring it up with both of you. If it is new money, have your attorney/financial advisor do it.

How do you go about brining up a Pre-Nup before marriage???
We are talking about pre-nups that negate the community property regime. Assets owned by a spouse before marriage remain the separate property of that spouse. You are talking about the reservation of fruits (income, interest, etc.) from separate property as separate property even though a community property regime exists. 2 different things. Trust me.
Kim you are correct and get an "A" on the exam.Obviously you passed the Bar Exam
