When Annulment May Be the Right Choice

Virginia law permits annulments only under specific circumstances that make a marriage legally void or voidable. Understanding if your situation qualifies can be complex, but certain factors may support your case:

• One party lacked mental capacity to consent
• Marriage was entered into under fraud or duress
• One spouse was already married to another person
• The parties are too closely related by blood
• One party was physically incapable of consummation
• One spouse was under legal age without proper consent

Each case requires careful examination of facts and timing. We'll evaluate your circumstances and determine if annulment proceedings are appropriate for your situation.
