IS MY RELATIONSHIP A COMMON LAW MARRIAGE?
Oklahoma law recognizes Common Law Marriage. A Common Law Marriage is just as valid as a
ceremonial marriage. If you meet the requirements for establishing a Common Law Marriage,
then you will have to file a petition for Divorce to dissolve your marriage.
Did you represent yourselves as being husband and wife to your friends, employers, etc? Did
your spouse use your last name? How did you file your income taxes? Do you have joint bank
accounts? These are some of the questions used in evaluating whether you have established a
Common Law Marriage.
