Domestic Disputes support from our Matrimonial team, handled end-to-end as part of our Litigation practice.
Mutual consent divorce: 6 to 18 months (mandatory cooling period). Contested divorce: 2 to 5 years depending on the court. Domestic violence protection orders: within 1 to 2 weeks of filing. Maintenance and custody matters are typically heard alongside the main petition.
We make legal and intellectual property filings seamless, secure, and fully transparent. Here is how we handle your assignment from start to finish:
Understand your goals, check eligibility, and draft the filing roadmap.
Collect required records and conduct compliance checks for errors.
Draft and submit applications to the registry within 48 business hours.
Monitor application progress and respond to office actions/objections.
Handover certified registrations and provide post-filing support.
Grounds vary by personal law but commonly include cruelty, desertion, adultery, mental disorder, and irretrievable breakdown of marriage. Mutual consent divorce is available under all personal laws.
Courts decide custody based on the 'best interest of the child' — considering the child's age, welfare, emotional needs, and the parent's ability to provide care and stability.
The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 is specifically designed for women. Men can seek remedies through criminal complaints (IPC sections) or civil suits for domestic disputes.
