Common Law marriage in Texas

By: The Probate Law Group
  • Summary

  • Common law marriage in Texas carries significant legal implications despite its informal nature. In Texas, couples may be considered legally married without a formal ceremony if they meet specific criteria. Both parties must agree to be married, cohabitate, and present themselves as a married couple to the community. However, common law marriage can be complex, especially regarding property rights, inheritance, and divorce. Understanding the requirements and consequences is crucial to navigating this arrangement. Consulting with a knowledgeable attorney can provide clarity and guidance on protecting rights and ensuring legal recognition under Texas law.
