writes:My husband and I separated, we've been married under a year. we married in march this year, I want a divorce. I have two questions.1. can I divorce him now? Or get an annulment?2. I want to buy a property within the next 2months, if I buy the property will my husband be able to have any claim to it? I've tried to keep it short and simple. I've tried to make the marriage work but it hasn't and I'm heartbroken that it didn't but I now need to go forward. If you need more information please ask. Thank you.

An annulment is not easier then getting divorced ( in most countries). Se seek legal counsel.

Divorce in my state is a minimun 90 days if it is no fault. If you have kids, you also have to take a class.
It's ALWAYS less painful the more you agree on. If you have few assets and property to split (as I suspect since its only been under a year) and you have no kids, you don't even need to do most of the stuff that is typically associated with a traditional divorce. But do see a lawyer. Most have a free consultation. If it goes smoothly, you can be divorced for not a lot of money.
But...I have to ask...how can you be sure in just 7 months it will not work out. I'm not expecting an answer...just be sure. You obviously had enough there to get married. Hell, the honeymoon is barely over. Not passing judgement. Just amazed...from someone who was married 15 years, that seems a bit premature.

1) You need to know whether your country's law allow for a no fault divorce or not? if yes then you can, otherwise you need to prove the fault. If both want divorce then it will be easy one. Obviously i do not think any fault is there b/n both of you. it is just that you both are incompatible and fights more ( i guess ). so best is to both of you to agree to divorce each other and free each other.
2) do not buy property.

1 - Talk to a lawyer. There's no other way of being sure unless you talk to a lawyer.
2 - While you're married, don't buy anything. He may be entitled to part of it.
