What is an annulment?

An annulment is similar to a divorce in the sense that both remove the confines of the marital bond from the couple. The key difference is that after an annulment, the marriage has been dissolved in such a way that it is as if the parties were never even married in the first place. This is because annulment is most often based on the grounds of fraud.

How do I know if I qualify for an Annulment?

If your spouse was married (either knowingly or unintentionally) at the time you married them, then you may qualify for an annulment. This is because in N.Y., bigamy (being married to more than one person at a time) is illegal. For more information, call our office and we will give you a free telephone consultation.

Another common way you qualify for an annulment is if your spouse lied to you about their intentions to start a family to induce you into marriage. Let’s say you’re dating your significant other, and they promise you that they want to start a family with you. They tell you if you marry them, then they will have children with you. But, after the wedding, everything changes. Now they refuse to have relations with you and may even outright tell you they lied to you and never intended to start a family with you at all. These circumstances may qualify you for an annulment. Call our office to find out if you qualify for an annulment today.

Retirement Benefits

Time and time again, I see agreements that call for the use of the Majauskas case to split up retirement plans (pensions) . Little if anything else is said beyond mentioning the case. All too often the reason why nothing else is said is that few lawyers know or understand the rights and obligations spouses have to each other’s retirement benefits. What the Majauskas case does direct is the use of a coverture fraction to determine the marital portion of a participants retirement benefit. The top part of the fraction (the numerator) represents the retirement benefit rights acquired during the marriage and the bottom part of the fraction (the denumerator) represents the entire retirement benefit acquired by the participant. Except in rare instances, the courts will split the marital portion equally.

That is where most of the agreements I see end. The problem is, however, that there are many more rights that a non-participant may have to the participant’s retirement benefits and the courts routinely find that, unless specifically laid out in an agreement, are waived. These rights may include pre-retirement death benefits, post retirement improvements to retirement benefits such as cost of living adjustments or early retirement incentives. They also may include post retirement death benefits such as survivorship options. One must also be clear as to when retirement benefits become available to the non-participant. Sometimes the participant is already in pay status and if one is not careful, the non participant may not see any benefit for years until the court orders them to start receiving their share through an order called a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. These orders are usually not drafted or signed by a Judge until well after the Judgment of Divorce was entered. Most lawyers also do not know the difference between a shared retirement benefit and a separate retirement benefit. Nor do many lawyers remember to specify who pays the costs of survivorship options and who pays for costs of drafting the qualified domestic relations orders. A scrupulous lawyer will be able to specify these provisions in their agreements to maximize their client’s interests. Make sure your lawyer can answer these difficult questions before you even think to retain them and place your valuable retirement benefits at risk.

Prenuptial/Postnuptial agreements

Whether you just got engaged or already tied the knot, you may have just realized that marriage is not just about love, its about business. The Domestic Relations Law in New York State treats a marriage as an economic partnership. Whether you realized it or not, by getting married, you are entering a business relationship with your spouse. If running a business is not what you had in mind when contemplating marriage, let the lawyers at Beckerman and Granados work with you to protect your rights and assets during the marriage.

Many lawyers will throw together prenuptial agreements for fiancés or post nuptial agreements for spouses, but few know the particularities and pitfalls that could easily render your prenuptial or post nuptial agreement null and void. From making sure proper acknowledgments are signed, appropriate disclosures are made, and fashioning the provisions to keep the agreements enforceable over time, Call us today because the lawyers at Beckerman and Granados PLLC are ready to serve you and protect your rights and assets before they are distributed at the time of divorce or separation.
