Annulments
Phoenix Annulment Attorney
Arizona Annulments and Divorce Attorney
For many, marriage quickly fades the fairy tale and brings reality to the forefront. Occasionally that reality is not pleasant and may even be dangerous. The state of Arizona allows troubled couples, who meet certain criteria, to pursue annulments of their marriage in lieu of divorce.
At Bishop & Martin Law Office, P.C., our team of attorneys works from offices in Tempe and in Phoenix to help men and women legally recover from a bad marriage through annulment and to move forward. Contact us today to schedule a consultation with a certified family law specialist.
Obtaining an Annulment of Marriage in Arizona
According to the Arizona State Legislature, the court may declare a marriage unsound if there is an impediment rendering the marriage void. These impediments, or circumstances, may include:
- Fraud and misrepresentation
- Absence of mental or physical capacity
- Blood relationship between the spouses
- An underage spouse
- Immigration
- Intoxication
- Duress
A legal annulment is not the same as a religious annulment. As a law firm, we handle legal annulments to end marriages and to return partners to the status they maintained prior to their marriage. Our skilled family law attorneys also handle legal separation cases and divorce cases.
Contact Bishop & Martin Law Office to discuss how you may end your marriage through annulment, legal separation or divorce. At an initial consultation, one of our Arizona annulment lawyers can sit down with you to determine which legal strategy is best in your situation. With two office locations in Phoenix and in Tempe, we offer convenient and accessible legal services from accomplished, dedicated and professional attorneys.
