Frequently Asked Questions
What is the process for a mutual consent divorce in Delhi?
A joint petition is filed before the Family Court, followed by a first motion. After a statutory cooling-off period, which the court may waive in suitable cases, a second motion is recorded and the decree is granted. The parties must agree on all terms, including maintenance and custody, before filing.
How is child custody decided?
Courts decide custody on the basis of the welfare of the child, considering factors such as the child's age, the parents' circumstances and, where the child is old enough, the child's own wishes. Custody and visitation arrangements can be agreed between the parties or determined by the court.
Are family law consultations confidential?
Yes. All consultations are confidential. We take the time to understand your circumstances privately before advising on the options available, including settlement, mediation and court proceedings.
