I got married one week ago and I want an annulment in NYC. Is that possible?

Q: I married her one week ago, and I recently found out she had been married before but never obtained a divorce decree or annulment. When I tried to talk to her about her previous marriage, she refused to give me any details and kicked me out after we got married. We were married in Connecticut, but our address was in New York City. It seems like she prefers a divorce instead of discussing things with me, and I no longer wish to speak with her. We want to either get a divorce or annulment, but we have to wait six months in NYC to file for an uncontested divorce. I want to resolve this as soon as possible. Is there a way to file for an annulment without hurting her feelings or causing conflict?

A: If she’s still married to her prior spouse, then your marriage is indeed void. as such, you would qualify to file for an annulment. Schedule a consult with a Bronx Family Law Attorney for a full assessment.
