What is a Common Law Wife?



communication in relationship

What is a common-law wife? A common law wife is one who is legally married to another man and has joint financial assets. She also has presumption of legitimacy over the children of her partner. Common law wives are usually the mothers of children. There are exceptions to this rule, like when the father of the child has died but the child is in her custody.

A common law wife is a woman married to a man.

Common law gives a woman certain rights when she marries a male partner. For example, she may be entitled to certain financial benefits and property division if she believes she was married when she was not. Although it may seem difficult to prove such a belief due to technical issues in the marriage process, it is possible. To put it another way, you have first to prove you are common law married before you can claim you are common law wife.

A Texas court can dissolve a common-law marriage. In this case, the parties must cohabitate and maintain their household as if they were married. The time the parties must have been married is not a requirement. It is the burden of proof on the other side. However, there is a stipulation in the Texas Family Code that states that a common law marriage must be documented within two years of the marriage.

He is her father.

Common law marriages are legal arrangements between a man (or woman) that take place without a formal ceremony. While they may not be married through a legal ceremony, common law marriages are valid just like traditional marriages. Common law marriages date back thousands of year. Women and men have been married for at most 5,000 years. However, the state has only legalized 500 years of marriage.


The first question you should ask if both of the parents have children is whether or not the common law wife has any children with her husband. Assuming that the husband is the father of the children, these children are presumed to be his or hers. Common law marriages can often lack official ties. This makes the legal position more complicated. Hence, a court can be a little confusing. Common law wives can claim their children, even if they have never been married.

She has joint finances with that man

There are several things that a man or woman must do when they decide to end their marriage. They must first be a married couple. This includes joint credit cards and bank accounts. It helps to agree on labeling for one another. The following states will usually recognize a common law marriage:

A joint account can also indicate that things are not going well in your relationship. Many couples will open joint accounts at the beginning of their relationship. They can then each deposit money, and use the money to pay their bills. They may also pool their resources for car payments and mortgage payments. They could use this money to pay for their children's education or buy a house. However, it is not always easy to return the money you shared prior to the breakup.

She presumes to be legitimate over her partner and their children

A presumption that a husband's children are valid in Euro-American family law gives a wife a presumption over her partner. This presumption stems from Civil Law and Roman law. It was incorperated into the majority of U.S. states up until recently. Now it is at a crossroads. Is the presumption that legitimacy is still valid?

Although it is not known what legal meaning a common-law wife has, some laws concerning the rights of common-law spouses reflect this principle. New York Dom Rel Law SS 24 provides an example of a common-law marriage that has a presumption to be legitimate over her husband's children.
