Julia Rodgers is an American attorney and businesswoman.[1] She is the co-founder and chief executive officer of HelloPrenup, an online platform that allows couples to draft state-compliant prenuptial agreements collaboratively.[2] Rodgers gained national attention after appearing on the television series Shark Tank in 2021, where she and her co-founder secured investment from Kevin O’Leary and guest shark Nirav Tolia.[3]
Early life and education
Rodgers earned her undergraduate degree from Simmons College in 2009.[4] She received a Juris Doctor from Suffolk University Law School in 2016, where coursework on legal automation influenced her interest in legal technology.[5]
Career
After law school, Rodgers practiced family law in Boston.[6] In that role she observed the expense and complexity of traditional prenuptial agreements, which motivated her to explore automated alternatives and legal-technology solutions.[7]
Rodgers founded HelloPrenup in 2021 to provide an online, state-specific prenuptial agreement service that allows both partners to participate in drafting and reviewing the agreement digitally.[8] Rodgers and co-founder Sarabeth Jaffe appeared on Shark Tank (season 13, episode 6) in November 2021, securing a deal reportedly worth $150,000 for 30 percent equity.[9]
Rodgers and HelloPrenup have been discussed in national outlets examining prenup trends and legal technology; for example, The New Yorker cited HelloPrenup as part of a broader trend of increased prenup use among non-wealthy Americans.[1]
