Divorce Attorney in Queens
An annulment is a legal way of ensuring that your marriage is null and
void. Obtaining an annulment can be difficult, especially because they
need to be proof-based. If you feel that your marriage is eligible to
be considered null and void, we encourage you to immediately contact the
Law Offices of Donald Mastrodomenico, P.C. When you work with a Queens
divorce lawyer from our firm, we will help you understand the difference
between civil and religious annulments and help you determine if obtaining
an annulment is a practical option for you. Our team can also provide
you with information on null and void marriages and ensure that all necessary
paperwork is completed in a timely manner.
Void marriages are considered invalid from their inception and are considered
to never have been an actual legal marriage. Marriages that took place
between relatives or between an individual who is still married may be
eligible for this annulment option. Voidable marriages were considered
to be valid at the time of their inception but become voidable as the
marriage progresses. Oftentimes, voidable marriages are granted when one
spouse was unaware or under false pretenses when they entered into the
marriage. In order to determine if your marriage is eligible for any annulment,
it is important that you work with an attorney. Even if you were married
in a religious ceremony, the state still recognizes your marriage as a
legal contract and an attorney should represent you at the state level
to ensure that your marriage is legally dissolved.
Dissolving a Marriage Through Annulment
In all practicality, annulments and
divorces are very similar; both dissolve marriages and legally remove couples from
the legally binding contracts of a marriage license. Annulments will not
destroy marriage records but can help ensure that you and the state are
aware that your marriage was never considered legally valid.
