Hudson County Annulment Lawyer
Divorce or annulment? Both divorces and annulments are frequently granted in Jersey City however, divorces are much more common. A common misconception among most people is that a short marriage may be annulled. However, the length of a marriage doesn't automatically qualify it for an annulment.If you are seeking an annulment in Jersey City or Newark, the Court will look for a fraudulent factor.
Annulments are granted usually because of some fraudulent factor that occurred at the time of the marriage. Examples of this are if one or both parties were minors at the time of the marriage and were married without parental consent, if the parties are closely related by blood, if one of the parties was already married, or if one of the parties was mentally incapacitated, as in a case of drunkenness or other mental disability. A marriage entered into by force, duress, or threat is also grounds for annulment as is the case of one of the parties concealing an important issue from the other such as a criminal history, a sexually transmitted disease, or impotence.
