Frequently Asked Questions Family Law — Your Questions Answered Common questions about divorce, child custody, alimony, domestic violence & matrimonial law in India.
How long does a mutual consent divorce take in India?
+
A mutual consent divorce typically takes 6–18 months. After filing the joint petition, there is a 6-month cooling-off period — which the Supreme Court has permitted courts to waive in appropriate cases. After the cooling-off period, the second motion is filed and the court grants the divorce decree. Our advocates help expedite the process wherever legally possible.
Can a wife claim maintenance without filing for divorce?
+
Yes, absolutely. Under Section 125 of the CrPC (now BNSS) and under the Hindu Marriage Act, a wife can claim interim and permanent maintenance completely independently of divorce proceedings. If your husband has abandoned you or refuses to support you financially, you can approach the Magistrate Court directly for maintenance without initiating any divorce.
Who gets child custody in India after divorce?
+
Indian courts decide child custody based on the paramount principle of the child's best interests and welfare. Factors considered include the age of the child (mothers typically get custody of very young children), each parent's ability to provide care and stability, the child's existing bond with each parent, and the child's own preference if old enough. Courts can grant sole physical custody, joint custody, or structured visitation rights depending on the facts.
What are the grounds for contested divorce in India?
+
Under the Hindu Marriage Act 1955, the recognized grounds for contested divorce include: Cruelty (most commonly used — both physical and mental), Desertion (abandonment for 2+ continuous years), Adultery, Conversion to another religion, Mental illness / unsound mind, Leprosy, and Renunciation of the world. For Muslim, Christian, and Parsi marriages, the grounds differ under their respective personal laws.
What should I do immediately if I receive a 498A notice?
+
Section 498A IPC (cruelty by husband and in-laws) is a cognizable and non-bailable offence — meaning arrest can happen without a warrant. If you receive a notice or if an FIR is filed: (1) Contact a family law advocate immediately, (2) Apply for Anticipatory Bail before any arrest, (3) Gather all evidence that disproves the allegations, (4) Do not confront the complainant without legal advice. Our advocates can file for anticipatory bail within 24–48 hours.
Can I file for divorce if my spouse is abroad (NRI)?
+
Yes. Indian courts have jurisdiction in matrimonial matters if the marriage was solemnized in India, or if the parties last resided together in India. An NRI spouse can be served notice through court-directed channels. We can represent you in Indian Family Court through Power of Attorney. If your NRI spouse has obtained a foreign divorce, we can advise on whether it is valid and binding in India.
What constitutes domestic violence under Indian law?
+
Under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act 2005 (PWDVA), domestic violence includes: Physical abuse (hitting, slapping, kicking), Sexual abuse (forced intercourse or sexual acts), Verbal and emotional abuse (insults, humiliation, threats), Economic abuse (withholding money, controlling finances, preventing employment), and Harassment for dowry. Importantly, the PWDVA also covers women in live-in relationships, not just married women.
