Description
Marriage annulment lawyer in Bucharest
Do you want to verify the validity of a marriage or do you need to respond to a request for annulment? We analyze the conditions existing at the time of the marriage, the reason invoked and the evidence, separately from the divorce procedure.
The nullity of marriage and divorce are different procedures
Nullity concerns the violation of the legal conditions for the validity of marriage. Divorce concerns the dissolution of a marriage and has other grounds. A conflict that arose later or the mere desire for separation do not automatically justify nullification. We establish the objective and the appropriate legal path based on the facts.
What needs to be assessed
- The legal conditions of substance and form at the conclusion.
- Consent and the circumstances invoked by the parties.
- The nature of nullity and the person who can formulate the request.
- Time limits, evidence and any circumstances that may cure the nullity.
- The effects of the decision on the legal situation of the persons.
Children and property relations
The consequences cannot be inferred simply from the word annulment. We assess the children’s situation, good faith when entering into the marriage and property matters separately. An application concerning the marriage’s validity does not replace other steps needed to address a child’s residence, maintenance or property issues.
International elements
If the act was concluded abroad or the spouses have ties with other states, we verify the jurisdiction, applicable law, and the necessary documents. It does not mean that annulment in Romania is determined exclusively based on the place where the certificate was issued, or that any decision produces the same formalities in all states.
Documents for consultation
The marriage certificate, identity documents, certificates of the children and existing court decisions. Prepare a chronology of the relevant circumstances and the documents supporting the reason invoked. If you have received a request, add all the documents and proof of communication. The private information of the family is transmitted through the method agreed upon with the lawyer.
Frequently asked questions
Can I request the annulment because we no longer understand each other?
The subsequent dissatisfaction does not in itself prove the invalidity of the marriage. We analyze whether the conditions of another approach are met.
Does the same time limit apply to every ground for annulment?
No. The nullity regime and the concrete circumstances must be examined separately.
For annulment on grounds of relative nullity, Article 301 of the Civil Code provides a six-month limitation period. Where consent was vitiated or a spouse temporarily lacked the capacity to understand and consent to the marriage, the period runs from the end of the duress or, as applicable, from when the person concerned became aware of the fraud, mistake or temporary lack of that capacity. Other grounds of annulment have their own statutory starting dates. Prepare a chronology and dated evidence so that the time limit and any circumstances that may cure the nullity can be assessed.
Can you also assist the person facing an application for annulment?
Yes, after analyzing the documents and verifying any conflicts of interest.
