Why Get an Annulment?
- If the marriage has lasted less than six monthsIn New York, other than for reasons of cruel and inhuman treatment, individuals cannot get divorced if their marriage is less than six months old. However, they may be able to get a annulment in certain circumstances.
- If one individual is still technically marriedIf one spouse is still married to another person but claimed to be divorced, the latest marriage can be annulled.
- If the marriage was based on fraudIf one individual deceived the other into getting married (by falsely claiming to want children, for example), an annulment may be appropriate.
- For religious reasonsIn certain religions, divorce is not an option for couples looking to end their marriages. A civil annulment, if appropriate, may be a viable alternative when a couple cannot get a divorce for religious reasons.
There may be additional reasons why a couple may choose an annulment over divorce. Talk to our lawyers to learn more.
