Re: a ''void'' marriage

I believe that the word for which you are searching is "annulled." An annulment means that the parties were never married because of a preexisting marriage; nonage; fraud as to an essential of the marriage such as concealing disease; falsely representing a desire to have children or not to have children or misrepresentation as to religious affiliation, among other things.

Call me if you like.

In a general sense, you would have your marriage anulled. There are limited and specific grounds to have a marriage declared annulled.

For a specific opinion regarding your individual circumstances, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
