Family Law

Recognized for our compassionate & effective legal solutions for sensitive family law matters.

We work with clients from all walks of life and help them resolve intricate and sensitive family matters, including divorce and separation, child custody and visitation, asset division, alimony and child support, adoption, prenuptial agreements, and cases involving serious physical and emotional abuse. From the outset, our lawyers spend time to understand each client’s unique family dynamics and requirements, building a strategy tailored to the respective circumstances. While we place high value in achieving amicable negotiated settlements, we are well-equipped to advocate for our clients in court – whether Family Court, High Court or the Supreme Court – to secure the most favourable outcome for our clients and their families.

Following are some of the broad areas that our family lawyers support with

  • Marriage Registration & Solemnization: We guide couples, including couples from different religions or nationalities, through the legal procedure of marriage registration & solemnization under the Special Marriage Act in India. Our scope encompasses preparing and submitting necessary documents along with the application, scheduling appointments and liaising with the relevant authorities ensuring seamless registration process. Additionally, we offer support with court and ceremonial solemnization aligning with legal standards.
  • Prenuptial Agreements: Our lawyers assist with drafting prenuptial agreements, providing legally valid and customized solutions which are fair to both parties and safeguard their financial interests and are likely to be upheld by the court in case of divorce or dissolution of the marriage.
  • Marriage Annulment: We have provided counsel to multiple couples on legal procedure of marriage annulment in India and assisted them with gathering evidence, filing petitions, and representation before the judicial bodies, ensuring a clear path to resolve their marital status.
  • Divorce – Mutual & Contested: Breakdown of a marriage is a difficult period. Our lawyers provide compassionate but effective legal counsel tailored to your respective circumstances. We assist clients through each stage of divorce, mutual or contested, from documentation, to mediation to court representation, streamlining the process and addressing all critical aspects of alimony, child custody and assets division.
  • International Divorce & Enforcement of Foreign Divorce Decree: Our firm specializes in cross-border divorce matters, providing comprehensive support for the execution of foreign divorce decree in India and vice versa. Typically, the process involves verifying the decree for compliance with Indian law, filing an application with the court, representing the client during proceedings and obtaining the order. We leverage our extensive international network and work closely with our foreign counterparts on divorce cases that involve multiple jurisdictions.
  • Child Custody: We evaluate each case individually and then provide strategic advice on custody options, including legal custody, physical custody and visitation rights. Our lawyers prepare and file necessary documentation and represent clients in mediation sessions for amicable resolutions. If needed, we advocate actively in court, presenting evidence and arguments, to secure the most favorable custody arrangements. In the entire process, our focus remains on the welfare of the child and securing his / her future.
  • Judicial Separation: Unlike divorce, which dissolves the marriage permanently, judicial separation serves as a temporary measure that allows the couples to address issues related to alimony, asset division and child custody without fully terminating the marriage. Our service includes preparing and filing of necessary documents, negotiations with other parties, and representation before the court.
  • Domestic Violence: Considering the vulnerability of such matters, we provide confidential consultation to assess the specific circumstances and needs of the client, advising on various available legal options including protection order and remedies under the Domestic Violence Act. We further assist with filing the necessary documents and representation before the court to ensure that their rights are upheld. Additionally, we advise on associated matters such as child custody, financial support and access to safe housing.
  • Adoption – Domestic & International: We have a dedicated team of lawyers who specialize in domestic and international adoption laws, providing customized legal support to prospective adoptive parents. In the case of domestic adoption, we assist with obtaining necessary clearances and preparing documents, ensuring compliance with the Juvenile Justice Act. For international or cross-border adoption matters, we work closely with our foreign partners and adoption agencies to meet all relevant legal protocols.
  • Surrogacy: Our firm provides legal guidance to clients for navigating the surrogacy process in India ensuring compliance with the Surrogacy (Regulation) Bill. We assist with drafting and reviewing the surrogacy agreement, protecting the rights of both intended parents and the surrogate. Our team also handles necessary documentation and represent clients before the court, if needed, to get legal recognition of the parentage.
