Divorce (Mutual & Contested)
Service Overview
Service Overview
Divorce (Mutual & Contested) refers to the legal process of dissolving a marriage under applicable personal laws. A mutual consent divorce is filed when both spouses agree to end the marriage amicably and settle issues relating to alimony, child custody, maintenance, and property division.
A contested divorce arises when one party disputes the dissolution or related terms. Grounds may include cruelty, desertion, adultery, mental disorder, or other legally recognised reasons, depending on applicable law. Contested proceedings involve the filing of a petition, written statements, evidence, cross-examination, and final adjudication by the family court.
This service includes drafting divorce petitions, negotiation and settlement assistance, mediation representation, alimony and maintenance advisory, custody matters, and court representation throughout the proceedings.
The objective is to ensure the lawful dissolution of marriage, protection of legal rights, and fair resolution of matrimonial disputes.
