Family Law Services

We represent clients in both mutual consent divorces (under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act) and contested divorce proceedings. Mutual consent divorces can often be concluded within 6 to 18 months; contested matters require more time and stronger advocacy.

We guide clients through every procedural step: filing the petition, attending mediation, managing interim relief applications, and arguing before the Family Court.

Establishing or challenging a maintenance claim — whether under Section 125 CrPC (BNSS), the Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act, or the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act — requires both legal expertise and financial documentation. We help clients present their case effectively and argue for a fair, enforceable maintenance order.

Custody disputes are among the most emotionally charged legal proceedings. Indian courts always decide custody based on the 'best interests of the child' standard. We help clients present their case with supporting evidence, expert reports where appropriate, and a focus on the child's welfare — not just the parent's preferences.

We handle: Physical and legal custody | Interim custody applications | Visitation schedules and enforcement | International child abduction (Hague Convention matters) | Modification of existing custody orders

The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 provides civil remedies for physical, emotional, verbal, economic, and sexual abuse within domestic relationships. We help survivors obtain protection orders, residence orders, custody orders, and compensation — quickly and discreetly.

We also represent parties in situations where domestic violence complaints are misused in matrimonial disputes, providing balanced, evidence-based defence.

When a parent dies, is incapacitated, or is found unfit, guardianship proceedings under the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act or the Guardians and Wards Act become necessary. We represent petitioners and respondents in guardianship matters before the District Court.

Disputes over matrimonial property, stridhan (gifts given to a bride), and shared assets are common in divorce proceedings. We advise on property rights, help trace and document assets, and argue for fair division in the context of matrimonial litigation.

Family disputes over inheritance — particularly in blended families or where a will is contested — require both sensitivity and legal precision. We draft wills, probate wills through the appropriate court, and represent clients in succession disputes.
