What are Grounds for an Annulement in Massachusetts?

Annulments “undo” a marriage by treating the couple as if no marriage had ever occurred. If one party was not legally able to enter a marriage because, for example, they were already married to someone else, the marriage is “void” from the beginning. If there is some other reason why the marriage should not be recognized, such as fraud, then the marriage is “voidable.” Annulments are rarely granted by the courts and should only be sought when the facts clearly show that the marriage is invalid.

Massachusetts divorce attorney Bruce Watson represents individuals in Milton and the surrounding South Shore towns including Braintree, Dedham, Norwood and Quincy.
