This legal treatise explores common-law marriage, arguing that it’s a valid form of marriage despite not being “recognized” by many states. The author contends that the right to marry predates government regulation, citing the Meister v. Moore Supreme Court decision. The document details the elements required to establish a legally sound common-law marriage, emphasizing consent, contract, and documentation to avoid ambiguity. It addresses misconceptions about property rights and child custody in such unions, suggesting methods for addressing these concerns. Finally, it critiques the legal language surrounding marriage licenses and statutory requirements.
