Helping Clients Through Annulment Proceedings in Central Ohio

An annulment is a legal procedure that ends a marriage by declaring it invalid. If you are seeking an annulment, you may have questions about your options and the process itself. Attorney Kelly Morgan, founder of Morgan Law Offices LLC, is here to help you through this process and offer guidance as you work toward a solution that best meets your needs.

What Is the Difference Between a Divorce and an Annulment?

A divorce ends a marriage, while an annulment declares that the marriage never happened in the first place. While a divorce can be filed on no-fault grounds, or on the grounds of extreme cruelty, adultery, etc., an annulment must be filed on the grounds of the marriage never having been valid.

Some of the most common reasons for filing an annulment include:

One spouse was already married when the marriage began
One spouse was too young to get married without a parent's permission
One spouse was fraudulently induced to marry (for example, with a false promise to have children even though infertile, or marrying just to get a green card)
One spouse was mentally incompetent at the time of the marriage
One spouse was physically unable to have sexual relations at the time of the marriage
One spouse was coerced into the marriage

How Long Do I Have to File for an Annulment?

If you think you might be eligible to file for an annulment, be sure to speak with an attorney as quickly as possible.
