Step by Step

The Legal Process of Mutual Divorce in Delhi

The process of obtaining a mutual divorce in Delhi involves several legally mandated steps, designed to ensure that both parties are making informed decisions about their separation.

1

Filing of the Petition

Both parties must agree to divorce and file a joint petition, filed in the family court where the couple last lived together, where the marriage was solemnized, or where either spouse currently resides.

2

Appearance of Parties

Both parties must appear before the court and confirm the petition was filed out of free will, with no unresolved issues on custody or property.

3

Passing of the First Motion

Once satisfied with the statements, the court passes a first motion order — an initial decree of divorce, beginning the waiting period.

4

Cooling-Off Period

A statutory period of six to eighteen months is given to reconsider. Courts may waive this if all issues are resolved and waiting serves no purpose.

5

Second Motion & Final Hearing

If both parties still wish to proceed after the cooling-off period, they file a second motion, and the court sets a final hearing date.

6

Decree of Divorce

The court reviews consent from both parties and, if satisfied, grants the decree of divorce, legally dissolving the marriage.

Important Considerations

  • Child Custody: Mutual consent typically includes agreement on custody arrangements that prioritise the child's best interests.
  • Property and Finances: Settlements regarding property and financial matters should be concluded prior to the final hearing.
  • Legal Guidance: Given the legal complexities and emotional stress of divorce, a competent lawyer provides essential support through the process.
