Voiding a Marriage in Texas
Learn More from a Houston Lawyer
Under Texas law, marriages can only end upon the death of one spouse unless spouses obtain a divorce. However, if a marriage begins under circumstances that are invalid, then there’s a third option for how to end it: annulment. Annulment is the process of declaring a marriage “null and void” thus making it as though it never happened in the first place. While this may seem like an ideal solution, the truth of the matter is annulments are actually quite rare, and it’s best to speak with a Houston attorney to discuss whether you even qualify this option before beginning.

Qualifying for an Annulment
As we stated previously, annulments are pretty rare. The overwhelming majority of the time, those who wish to end their marriage must go through the divorce process to do so. Annulments are generally reserved for when circumstances would invalidate the signature and legality of a marital agreement, thus making it unenforceable.
