Divorce vs. Annulment
Onward: Your Guide to Navigating the Early Stages of Divorce
Divorce is a complex and emotionally charged process. Understanding the options available to you, such as divorce and annulment, can make a significant difference in how you approach this challenging time. Onward is here to help you navigate every step of this journey, ensuring you have the knowledge and support you need.
Divorce vs. Annulment: Know the Difference
When a marriage ends, couples have two primary legal paths: divorce or annulment. While both dissolve a marriage, they are fundamentally different processes. Divorce ends a valid marriage, whereas annulment declares that the marriage was never legally valid from the start.
Legal Definitions and Grounds
Divorce is the legal termination of a marriage. Common grounds include irreconcilable differences, adultery, and abandonment. Annulment, on the other hand, is a legal decree that the marriage was invalid due to reasons such as fraud, bigamy, or incapacity.
The Process: What to Expect
The procedures for divorce and annulment differ significantly. Divorce involves a series of legal steps, including filing a petition, negotiating settlements, and possibly going to trial. Annulment, however, typically requires proof of invalidity and is often quicker, though still legally complex.
Finances and Children
Handling finances and children during a separation can be especially challenging. Divorce usually involves dividing assets and debts and creating custody arrangements. Annulment, by treating the marriage as void, can simplify asset division but still requires careful planning for child custody.
