Divorce Matters explains that contrary to popular belief, common law marriage is not exactly difficult, but the requirements go beyond two people having lived together for a defined number of years. They add that common law marriage does not have a time requirement, and this also means interested parties do not have to live together seven years to be qualified for common law marriage.

They add, though, that unless the interested parties actually conduct themselves as husband and wife, the State of Colorado will not see them as part of a common law marriage. Divorce Matters explains that both parties must agree to become husband and wife for this to take effect.

The law firm adds that there are certain specifications that the court will look into to determine if the parties involved are, indeed, part of a common law marriage. This includes:

- If they actually live together
- If the woman has taken the man’s last name
- If both parties use the married status; this includes if they list each other as their spouse
- If the property they own is titled to both of their names

Divorce Matters explains that getting into common law marriage is actually very easy, and that the crucial requirement is simply for both parties to agree to be husband and wife.

While Common Law Marriage technically has its own process, Divorce Matters explains that there is no such thing as a common law divorce. They add that parties who wish to dissolve their common law marriage need to undergo the same divorce process.

The same specifications that the court reviews to determine if they are married under common law is the same criteria that they will have a look at if the parties decide to dissolve their marriage. Divorce Matters’ team of lawyers will provide parties undergoing divorce under the specifications of common the necessary information that they need to go through the divorce process.
