Frequently Asked Questions on Family Law
Divorce can be filed under mutual consent or contested grounds such as cruelty, desertion, or adultery. The process involves filing a petition, court hearings, and a final decree. A family lawyer ensures your rights are protected throughout.
Judicial separation allows spouses to live apart without ending the marriage legally, while divorce permanently dissolves the marriage. It serves as a cooling-off period for couples considering reconciliation.
Custody is awarded based on the child's best interests. Courts consider factors like the child's age, emotional attachment, and financial stability of parents. Joint custody or visitation rights may also be granted.
Victims have the right to protection orders, residence rights, financial relief, and custody orders. The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act provides a civil remedy for victims, and legal aid is available.
Alimony or maintenance is determined by factors such as the income and standard of living of both spouses, duration of marriage, and responsibilities like child care. It can be monthly or one-time settlement.
Yes, marriages can be annulled under specific grounds like coercion, fraud, mental incapacity, or if the marriage was not consummated. Annulment makes the marriage void from the beginning.
While registration is not mandatory under all personal laws, it is strongly recommended as proof of marriage for legal and administrative purposes. It is mandatory under some state laws.
Legal consultation helps you understand your rights and take the right steps—whether it's filing a protection order, securing child custody, or asserting property claims. VakeelSaab ensures confidential legal help is always available.
In certain cases, grandparents may be granted visitation if it serves the child's emotional and psychological welfare. Family courts may allow limited access based on the child's best interests.
Mutual consent divorce usually takes 6 to 18 months depending on court workload and waiting period. Contested divorces may take longer, up to several years, based on complexity and evidence required.
