What do I need to do to be granted an annulment in the state of Utah?

For an annulment you essentially have to show that there was some wrong-doing, or fraud, associated with you and he getting married. Simply being married for a short period is not a reason for an annulment. We'd have to talk to see if there is anything that could satisfy the "fraud" requirement. You might have sufficient facts. In the alternative, you can always file for divorce (in fact you could file for both, in the alternative and therefore save time and money.) You need to get with an aggressive family law attorney who has experience with annulments, divorce, custody and difficult cases. I know what these cases are like, having handled a number. Do your online research and get moving forward. Please understand that this site does not allow us to recommend any attorney or firm.  You need to get moving ... as in today, to hire an attorney and handle this matter correctly from the outset. Or, you can try doing it yourself, and bumble through. Of the two options, which choice is best for your children, and your rights with those children? Your situation involves major factual and procedural issues. These are issues that we can discuss. If you are interested in pursuing the matter further, I offer an initial 1/4 hour consultation without charge, and a 1/2 hour consultation for $50. If you want to set an appointment for the initial consultation, feel free to telephone, or email, my office; if you are outside of the Salt Lake area, we can handle all of this by phone.
 Don't wait any longer, give a call and let's getting working to protect your children.
