Which is better for us, annulment or divorce?

Divorce lawyer at Peyton & Associates
Unless you can meet the standards of fraud or insanity, you must file for dissolution of marriage not annulment. There is a process called a joint petition for dissolution of marriage which is good for short term marriages with no children or assets. Check that out online or at the court.

Can I send counter petition with out a server?

Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at The Overstreet Law Firm
You must e-file the counterpetition through the e-filing system. Your spouse will receive it through that system. Contact the clerk for the court where the original petition was filed to get more information about how to file the counterpetition. Some courts will allow you to file in person, but most require e-filing.

In Texas, do you have to actually sign a declaration of marriage to be married?

Answered by attorney Willie Stephen Graves (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Graves Law Firm
You don't have to sign a declaration of marriage to be married by common law in Texas. However, if she was already married to someone else, just cohabiting with you and holding herself out as married to you doesn't make her a bigamist. Likewise, cohabiting with the next guy doesn't make her a bigamist even if she's married to you by common law. You can't get married by common law if you're already married. Even if she married someone else formally after she split with you, you're very, very unlikely to get a prosecutor to charge her with bigamy. Your right to claim common law marriage will end two years after the split if you haven't filed for divorce by then.
