Because the template might not comport with the particulars of your state's laws. Because there might be thing you want to include that the template doesn't cover. Because there might be things that should be worded in a particular way that your template might not account for. Etc., etc.can anyone give me more insight about why not?
I don't know. Why do you need/want a prenup to begin with? If it's not worth it to you to pay whatever the cost is (which may be much less or more than "several thousand dollars"), then you may not have a need for a prenup at all. Regardless, only you can decide for yourself what is and isn't worth paying for.Is it really worth paying a lawyer several thousand dollars to create / review the contract?
If you really want/need a prenup and want it done right pay the attorney several thousand dollars or whatever it takes. When your future ex-wife/husband heads to divorce court it will probably save you several hundred thousand dollars.I know the general advice is not to use a template from the internet for a prenup, but can anyone give me more insight about why not? I live in New Jersey. Is it really worth paying a lawyer several thousand dollars to create / review the contract? Thank you.
This is only true if there are at least several hundred thousands of assets to quibble over.If you really want/need a prenup and want it done right pay the attorney several thousand dollars or whatever it takes.

Only if you have enough assets worth quibbling over. Or if one of you have child(ren).I know the general advice is not to use a template from the internet for a prenup, but can anyone give me more insight about why not? I live in New Jersey.

Last but not least.Because the template might not comport with the particulars of your state's laws. Because there might be thing you want to include that the template doesn't cover.

Divorce prevention. The system works!Last but not least.
Because as soon as your soon-to-be spouse hears "pre-nup" she's going to get herself a lawyer.
LOL.
