Our Areas of Practice

1. NRI Legal Services

Indian citizens living abroad often face unique legal hurdles in matrimonial matters. At LLC, we specialize in assisting NRIs with divorce, maintenance, child custody, and related legal issues, ensuring that both Indian and foreign legal frameworks are addressed effectively.

In cases where mutual agreement is not possible, we represent clients in contested divorce proceedings before Family Courts and Civil Courts. We ensure that your rights and interests are strongly represented while navigating the complexities of litigation.

Cross-border divorces can be highly complicated. Whether your marriage was solemnized in India or abroad, we provide strategic solutions for recognition and enforcement of foreign divorce decrees under Indian law, helping clients avoid legal pitfalls.

If one spouse has withdrawn from the company of the other without a reasonable cause, a petition for restitution of conjugal rights can be filed. Our experienced team assists clients in filing and defending such cases with empathy and precision.
