Family Law (India)

Life brings both joyous and challenging times, and during difficult moments you may require expert legal guidance. In such matters, your family lawyer should not only understand the law but also support you throughout the process—with strategy, compassion, and practical advice.

Navigating Sensitive Matters

Our team of family law specialists in India helps you handle complex situations, protect your future, and secure outcomes that suit your circumstances:

• Separation and Divorce: guiding you through the process under the Hindu Marriage Act, Special Marriage Act, or other personal laws applicable to your faith
• Child Custody and Visitation: assisting in disputes regarding guardianship, custody, and visitation rights under the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890
• Domestic Violence and Protection: helping you obtain protection, residence, and maintenance orders under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005
• Maintenance and Alimony: supporting you in securing interim or permanent maintenance under the Code of Criminal Procedure (Section 125) or personal laws

Children and Divorce

When divorce involves children, emotions run high and disputes can become stressful. However, the welfare of the child is always the foremost consideration in Indian law.

Our legal experts provide step-by-step guidance in areas such as:

• Custody and guardianship
• Visitation rights
• Child maintenance and support
• Relocation issues
• Rights of grandparents and extended family

Protecting Your Assets

We also advise on ways to safeguard your interests:

• Property and Business: ensuring fair division of assets, business interests, and ancestral property in compliance with Indian succession laws
• Marital Agreements: drafting pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreements (though not formally recognised under Indian statutes, such agreements can provide clarity in matrimonial disputes)
•  

Choosing the Right Path

Every family matter is unique. Depending on your needs, we guide you through:

• Mediation and Conciliation (encouraged by Indian courts as a first step)
• Lok Adalat (for amicable settlement without lengthy litigation)
• Arbitration (where suitable)
• Court Proceedings in family courts or high courts when necessary

We explain the benefits and limitations of each method so you can make the right decision.
