Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey
Are they legally married?
My parents met and were married and after 7 years my mother found out that my dad was married to another woman. The other woman granted my dad a divorce, but my parents did not marry again after the finalized divorce. The first wife has since passed away and so has my dad. Are or were my parents legally married?

Re: Are they legally married?
When one marries while already married the second marriage is void from the very beginning. The were not married. I hope there was a will. On the other hand if there was no will and you are the only child you would inherit from both or either of your parents upon their death.
