Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about divorce legal services.

Mutual consent divorce is when both spouses agree to dissolve the marriage amicably without blaming each other. Under Section 13-B of the Hindu Marriage Act, the couple must live separately for at least one year before filing.

Contested divorce can take anywhere from 1 to 3 years, depending on the complexity of the case, number of hearings, and the court's workload.

While it's not mandatory, hiring a divorce lawyer is highly recommended to ensure your rights are protected, documents are properly filed, and you receive fair settlement in alimony, custody, and property matters.

Legal fees vary based on the complexity of the case. At Advocates Act, we offer transparent pricing starting from ₹15,000 for mutual consent divorce and ₹35,000+ for contested divorce cases.

Yes, alimony or maintenance can be claimed by either spouse. The court considers factors like income, standard of living, and financial needs while determining alimony amounts.

Child custody is decided based on the child's best interests. Factors like age of the child, parents' financial stability, and emotional bonds are considered. Joint custody is also becoming increasingly common.

While initial consultation and document submission can be done online, the actual divorce petition must be filed physically in the family court. Our lawyers handle the entire filing process on your behalf.

Legal separation allows couples to live separately without dissolving the marriage. Divorce ends the marriage completely. Legal separation is often used as a first step before deciding on divorce.

Property division depends on whether assets are joint or separate. Courts consider contributions, financial needs, and other factors to ensure a fair division of marital property.

Yes, you can remarry after the divorce decree is finalised and the waiting period (if any) has elapsed. Our lawyers ensure the divorce is legally complete before you plan to remarry.
