Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a mutual divorce take in Pune?

A mutual divorce typically takes 6–18 months. The mandatory 6-month cooling-off period can sometimes be waived by the court. The exact timeline depends on court scheduling and both parties' continued cooperation.

Can an NRI get a divorce in India without being present?

Yes. An NRI can grant Power of Attorney to their advocate who can then represent them in Indian courts. Most of the process can be managed remotely, with video conferencing available for certain hearings.

What is the first step in a domestic violence case?

Contact a lawyer or Protection Officer immediately. Under the PWDVA 2005, you can apply for an emergency protection order the same day. Document all evidence and seek safe shelter if needed. Contact us anytime for immediate assistance.

What are the grounds for divorce under Indian law?

Under the Hindu Marriage Act, grounds for divorce include cruelty, adultery, desertion, conversion, mental disorder, renunciation, and presumption of death. For mutual divorce, both parties simply need to agree they cannot live together.

How does NRI property management work?

You can grant a registered Power of Attorney to a trusted person or advocate in India to manage your property. This person can handle rent collection, sale, maintenance, legal disputes, and documentation on your behalf.

From the moment I walked in, I felt heard and respected. She was patient, attentive, and took the time to clearly explain my situation and the options available to me without rushing or using overly complicated legal jargon. What stood out most was her professionalism combined with a compassionate approach—it’s not easy discussing personal matters, but she made the process feel comfortable and manageable. I left the meeting feeling more informed, confident, and reassured about the next steps. Highly recommend Advocate Shweta to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and understanding divorce lawyer.
