Divorce by Mutual Consent: A Simple and Amicable Solution

One of the simplest and most peaceful ways to dissolve a marriage in India is through Mutual Consent Divorce.

It allows both spouses to agree on the terms of their separation, including issues like maintenance, property division, and child custody, without the need for prolonged litigation. Here’s how you can obtain a divorce by mutual consent with the help of our expert family court lawyers:

1. Filing the Petition

To file for Mutual Consent Divorce, both spouses must agree to divorce and file a joint petition along with the consent terms. These terms outline the details of the divorce, including arrangements for children, financial support, and property division.

The petition can be filed in the following courts:

• The place where the marriage took place.
• The place where the couple last lived together.
• The place where the wife is residing at the time of filing.

Our Family Court Lawyers can assist you in preparing the necessary documents and filing the petition in the appropriate court to ensure a smooth process.

2. First Motion

Once the petition is filed, both parties are required to attend court to record their statements. This is called the First Motion. If a spouse cannot attend due to valid reasons, such as residing abroad, they can grant Power of Attorney to a close relative or friend, allowing them to represent them in court.

The First Motion is a critical step in the divorce process, as it marks the official start of the proceedings.

3. Cooling-Off Period

After the First Motion, there is a mandatory cooling-off period of six months. This period allows the parties to reconsider their decision and provides an opportunity for reconciliation. During this time, the court may also suggest marriage counseling. The cooling-off period may extend to up to 18 months in some cases, depending on the circumstances.

If either party withdraws their consent during this time, the divorce proceedings can be halted. However, if both parties remain committed to the divorce, the process moves forward.

4. Second Motion

After the cooling-off period, the parties must attend court again for the Second Motion. At this time, they will reaffirm their decision to proceed with the divorce and re-record their statements. Once the court is satisfied, it will grant the Decree of Divorce, officially dissolving the marriage.

Child Custody and Maintenance in Divorce

Divorce can be particularly complicated when children are involved. Deciding on child custody and maintenance is often one of the most emotionally charged aspects of divorce proceedings. At Legal Light Consulting, we guide parents through the complex process of determining custody arrangements that are in the best interests of the children.

Types of Custody:

• Joint Custody: In this arrangement, both parents share the responsibilities of raising the children. The child usually spends time with both parents according to a set schedule.
• Exclusive Custody: One parent may be granted exclusive custody of the child, while the other parent is given specific visitation rights.

Additionally, the issue of maintenance (financial support for the spouse and children) is often negotiated during divorce proceedings. Our expert lawyers will help you secure a fair and just maintenance arrangement, ensuring that the financial needs of the children and the dependent spouse are met.

Contested Divorce: When One Spouse Refuses Divorce

If one spouse is not willing to grant a divorce, the other party may have to approach the Family Court with a Contested Divorce Petition. Grounds for a contested divorce may include cruelty, desertion, or adultery, among others.

In such cases, it is crucial to gather strong evidence to support the divorce petition. Our Family Court Lawyers will work closely with you to build a strong case and ensure that you are treated fairly during the proceedings.
