This work covers whether a marriage is legally valid, including whether a ceremony meets the required formalities and whether there is any defect such as incapacity or fraud that would render a marriage void or voidable. A solicitor in this area prepares and negotiates the steps to resolve the status, often through a declaration of validity or nullity, and may advise on related issues such as property and parenting where the marriage status affects those rights. What happens next can depend on evidence and timing.
A solicitor drafts nullity or declaration of validity, gathers documentary evidence (identity, consent, capacity, prior marriages), advises on potential objections, and liaises with the courts and the General Register Office as needed. They manage timelines, assess whether a decree of nullity or a declaration of validity is appropriate, and explain how outcome affects finances and children.
