Dallas Annulment Attorney
Experienced Legal Guidance Throughout the Annulment Process in TX
For some, the dissolution of a marriage doesn’t have to be a divorce. Divorce isn’t for everyone. Annulment differs from divorce in that it does more than dissolve a marriage. An annulment voids the marriage as if it never occurred. In Texas, there are specific situations where you may be able to end a marriage through annulment.

What is an Annulment?
An annulment is a legal process that declares a marriage null and void, treating it as though it never existed. Unlike divorce, which acknowledges the end of a valid marriage, an annulment retroactively renders the marriage invalid from its inception. Grounds for annulment may vary, encompassing reasons such as fraud, bigamy, non-consummation, or the discovery of a pre-existing legal impediment to the marriage.
Our experienced Dallas annulment lawyers at Mueller Family Law Group understand the nuances of Texas family law, allowing us to provide informed and strategic counsel tailored to your unique situation. Whether you're grappling with fraud, misrepresentation, or any other grounds for annulment, our team is well-equipped to guide you through the legal intricacies with sensitivity and expertise.
When You Can Seek Annulment in Texas
Just because you want an annulment does not mean that it is a realistic option. In Texas, courts grant annulments only when specific conditions are met.
For example:
- One of the parties was under 14 when the marriage occurred.
- One of the parties was under the influence of drugs or alcohol when the marriage occurred.
- One of the parties lacked mental capacity when the marriage occurred.
- One of the parties was impotent, unbeknownst to the other party at the time of the marriage.
- One of the parties entered into the marriage based on fraud or coercion.
- One of the parties concealed that they obtained a divorce within 30 days before the marriage.
- The parties were married within 72 hours of obtaining a marriage license.

We work diligently to expedite proceedings, but the timeline ultimately depends on the unique circumstances of each case.
