Moving with Pets

Moving can be very stressful for the homeowners and can be just as stressful on their pets. Here are some tips that can make that transition easier on you and your pet. First, keep your pet's routine as normal as possible during the packing and moving process. Second, if possible, have a friend or boarding service watch him. If not possible, avoid giving him food or water an hour or two before your trip. Third, if he will be traveling in a pet carrier, make sure there is room for him to stand up and turn around and plenty of ventilation for him to breathe. Remember to use newspaper or other absorbent material in the bottom of the carrier, in case he has an accident. Finally, remember his favorite toy!

Pre-Nuptial Agreements

Quite often, pre-nuptial agreements are thought of as negative. In some cases, however, a pre-nup can be very helpful and even create peace of mind. A pre-nuptial agreement (also called a pre-marital agreement or pre-nup) defines to whom property belongs and can prevent legal arguments should a divorce or death occur. The agreement covers three areas: during marriage, upon divorce, and upon death of a spouse. It is very important that all parties involved have independent counsel. It is also important that everyone is honest and provides full disclosure of their assets. If these don't occur, the agreement may be invalid. You might benefit from a pre-nup if you are engaged and either own a business, have children or someone needing special care, or have many assets.

To discuss a pre-nuptial agreement or other legal issues, contact Richardson Law Firm, at 918-492-7674 or www.richardsonlawfirmpc.com.
