Utah Common Law Marriage

Utah does not recognize common law marriage; couples must petition the courts for formal acknowledgment. To be considered legally married, individuals must meet specific criteria, such as living together and presenting themselves as married. If approved, they may enjoy rights such as property division, claiming damages, insurance benefits, and inheritance. Although Utah lacks a common law marriage statute, understanding these legal requirements is essential for couples who wish to formalize their relationship.
