Corporations, divorce, and pre-nuptuals...

Pretty sure I already know the answer but additional input, even from the peanut gallery, never hurts.

Let's say Joe Blow has a corporation (C-class I believe) for a year or so, meets Jane Swallows, falls in love, gets married, etc. Well Jane is married now so she no longer Swallows. Joe doesn't like that. They decide to get a divorce.

Is Jane entitled to 50% of that corporation? She has absolutely no involvement in the corporation, it was established before she started Swallowing, she knows nothing about the corporation except it's existence. Now I realize this will depend on various State Laws, but in general, what's the consensus?

I think it's pretty safe to say a pre-nuptual should be written up just for clarification anyway. Who writes those? Most lawyers? And how much would something like this potentially cost?

And no, I'm not getting married.
