What is an Annulment?

An annulment is a legal procedure that declares a marriage invalid. This means that the marriage is as if it never existed. This is different from a divorce, which legally ends a marriage and leaves the marriage as a fact that occurred in the past.

Why Do Couples Seek an Annulment Instead of Divorce? 

There are several reasons why a couple may seek an annulment instead of a divorce. Some of these include:

  • If one spouse was mentally incapacitated at the time of the marriage
  • If one spouse was coerced into the marriage by force or duress
  • If one spouse was underage at the time of the marriage
  • If one spouse lied about an important fact (such as a sexually transmitted disease)
  • If one spouse was already married

While an annulment does not grant a couple the same rights as a divorce, it does allow them to remarry if they choose. An annulment can also help protect a spouse's rights in a child custody and child support case.

An annulment is not automatic. A court will typically only grant an annulment if the marriage is found to be invalid. This means that a judge will examine the facts and evidence surrounding the marriage and determine if it is considered invalid.

  • “She communicated with me throughout the process.”
    She got pretrial diversion for me in my case. She communicated with me throughout the process. She also did not have to return to court with me for the final step but she did!

  • “She went above and beyond”
    Due to a misunderstanding, a warrant was issued in Alabama, even though we live in Virginia and hadn't been to Alabama for many years. We were apprehensive about the possibility of traveling to Alabama during these uncertain times. Luckily, Ms. Robinson was able to quickly and professionally interact with local law enforcement and the district attorney's office to get the case dismissed without us having to be there. Throughout her handling of the case, she went above and beyond to make sure we were aware she was doing everything in her power to assist us. We are deeply appreciative of her and her efforts and would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone needing representation.

  • “Amazing and highly recommended.”
    I contacted Ruth Robinson on a Saturday regarding a warrant that was issued for failure to appear. On Monday, she filed a notice of appearance as my attorney and filed a motion to have the warrant recalled. The court told her they’d recall the warrant and set a new court date. Ruth was very professional, diligent, and went above and beyond for me. She listened to everything I told her, requested me to send her several screenshots and filed the necessary paperwork to get the warrant recalled and a new court date. Amazing and highly recommended if you want or need someone who is passionate about practicing law and treating you like you’re a priority.

  • “I trust her completely and she has always worked hard for me.”
    Ruth Robinson is a thorough and passionate criminal defense attorney. When I found myself facing criminal charges for something that was completely bogus in a corrupt governmental atmosphere, she has worked with me diligently and continues to do so. I trust her completely and she has always worked hard for me. Better than any attorney I could ask for through and through.
