What Qualifies as an Annulment in Texas?

Unlike a divorce, which ends a legally valid marriage, an annulment is a legal declaration that the marriage was never valid to begin with. The Texas Family Code outlines specific situations where annulments are legally permitted. According to Texas Family Code § 6.107, the court may grant an annulment of a marriage to a party to the marriage if the other party used fraud, duress, or force to induce the petitioner to enter into the marriage.

Common grounds for annulment include:

  • One party was under the age of 18 without parental consent or court approval
  • Either party was under the influence of alcohol or drugs and lacked the capacity to consent
  • One spouse was permanently impotent, and the other didn’t know at the time of marriage
  • Fraud, duress, or force was used to induce the marriage
  • Mental incapacity at the time of the marriage
  • One party concealed a prior divorce within 30 days of marriage
  • The marriage occurred less than 72 hours after the marriage license was issued

Texas law requires that annulment petitions be filed in the county where one of the parties resides. The legal requirements are complex, and proving your case requires careful preparation and skilled legal advocacy from Heiman Law Firm.

When Annulment Makes Sense

Annulments aren’t right for everyone, but they can be a powerful option when the legal conditions apply. For many clients, it’s about correcting something that was invalid from the start—not just emotionally, but legally.

People seek annulments for a variety of reasons:

  • Protecting financial or property rights – Especially when one party concealed assets or legal history before marriage 
  • Religious or cultural considerations – Some clients prefer annulment for faith-based or personal reasons instead of divorce 
  • Correcting fraudulent or forced marriages – A way to legally nullify a marriage that never should have happened 
  • Avoiding the stigma of divorce – Annulment provides a different legal resolution that some find more acceptable 
  • Preserving certain legal benefits – In some cases, annulment may better protect insurance, inheritance, or other legal interests

At Heiman Law Firm, we help you determine whether you meet the legal grounds and walk you through what to expect. We’ll never push you toward a decision—we’re here to inform, support, and represent your interests.
