    Bigamy is not legal in the United States.

    You can look into the annulment laws of your state. Laws are different in each state.

    You are not married but you may have an equitable claim to anything aquired during the time you were together provided you did not know about the previous marriage. If you want to stay together he needs to get a divorce and then you can remarry. Otherwise you can file in family court.
