We're moving to Quebec, my boy and I. Quebec counts us as married (de facto), so in a sense, moving to Quebec is like getting married.
Being tidy types, we decide to make a pre-nup.
So we ask around for a pre-nup lawyer. We get a recommendation from a friend. We email the lawyer a few times, no reply, we phone her. Her secretary doesn't use the Hold button so we hear her in the background going "Yeah, I have no idea who that guy is, he emailed me totally out of the blue..." and other things that didn't really fill us with confidence.
So. Anyone else know a pre-nup lawyer? Seems like everyone in my life is married; some of you lot must know someone who's done a pre-nup.

Also, in the US, prenup's are generally for specific reasons. NY has some requirements for them, and they didn't, in the end, seem to much matter. One of the requirements is for both parties to have their own council... and so you pay for *2* lawyers :)
You might also want to determine what you're trying to protect w/ the pre-nip. That, and what you want to achieve.
May not be worth the fairly expensive project.
