Hi Lawrence,

Annulment, as in any other country usually takes time. You don't need a lawyer for that though. You just need to go to the church and consult with a priest or even better the priest who officiated her wedding. The priest and church officials are the source of the right advice on the procedures for annulment.
Good luck.
