Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) face unique challenges in divorce cases due to jurisdictional issues and international laws. We assist NRIs with filing or defending divorce petitions under the Hindu Marriage Act, Special Marriage Act, or Foreign Marriage Act, 1969. We also handle cases involving international child custody, maintenance, and property division, ensuring compliance with Indian and foreign legal systems.

Divorce under Foreign Marriage Act

The Foreign Marriage Act, 1969, applies to marriages between Indian citizens and foreigners or marriages solemnized outside India. Divorce can be sought under Section 18 (mutual consent after one year of separation) or Section 19 (judicial separation or divorce on grounds like adultery, cruelty, or desertion for two years). We assist couples with filing petitions in Indian courts or coordinating with foreign jurisdictions for NRI or international cases.

We understand that divorce is an emotional and complex journey. Our experienced legal team provides compassionate guidance to help you through every step.
