Ending a marriage or legal domestic partnership in Los Angeles or Orange County can proceed through different legal avenues depending on the parties involved and circumstances surrounding their relationship. There are three primary ways someone can dissolve a marriage or legal domestic partnership in the state of California with each having a different legal process.
Annulment – An annulment within the California courts is a declaration that the marriage was invalid from the start and thereby never legally binding due to reasons such as one of the parties being already legally married, one of the parties was a minor at the time of marriage, one of the parties was forced into marriage, fraudulent activity which led to the marriage or those found to be mentally unfit for marriage.

Legal Separation – Couples who choose to file for a legal separation are not legally divorced however through the legal separation process it allows the courts and both parties to come to a legal agreement regarding things such as assets, spousal support, property division and in cases with children, child care, custody and support.
Although it may seem identical to divorce, a legal separation is often chosen for religious reasons or to maintain financial benefits that remain when a marriage is legally intact such as wanting to maintain insurance or other benefits. In some cases, legal separation is the best course of action.
