Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the best family lawyer in Delhi for divorce and custody cases?
Tabish Sarosh & Associates is among the top family law firms in Delhi, known for handling divorce, contested child custody, maintenance, 498A defence, and domestic violence cases with sensitivity, strategy, and decisive advocacy. The firm has dedicated matrimonial lawyers with courtroom experience across all Delhi Family Courts, Tis Hazari, Saket, Dwarka, Rohini, and Patiala House courts.
How long does a divorce take in Delhi courts?
A mutual consent divorce in Delhi typically takes 6 to 18 months, including the mandatory 6-month waiting period under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act (though courts can waive this). A contested divorce can take 2 to 5 years depending on the complexity of issues like property division and child custody. Our family lawyers in Delhi work to secure the fastest possible resolution — whether through negotiated settlement or vigorous court representation.
Can a family lawyer in Delhi help with false 498A cases?
Yes. False 498A cases (matrimonial harassment) are unfortunately common in Delhi. Our criminal and family lawyers work together to challenge false allegations, seek anticipatory bail, file counter-petitions, and apply for Section 482 BNSS quashing of the FIR where the case lacks merit. We approach 498A matters with both criminal defence expertise and matrimonial law knowledge — a unique combined advantage.
What is the process for child custody in Delhi?
Child custody in Delhi is decided under the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890 (for all religions) and personal laws (Hindu Minority & Guardianship Act, etc.). Courts prioritise the best interest of the child. Our family lawyers in Delhi assist clients with interim custody orders, permanent custody petitions, visitation rights (parenting time), and international child abduction cases under the Hague Convention framework.
How much maintenance can a wife claim in Delhi courts?
Maintenance in Delhi is awarded under Section 125 CrPC / BNSS, Section 24 of the Hindu Marriage Act (interim maintenance), or the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act. The amount varies based on income, lifestyle, and needs. Delhi courts have awarded anything from ₹5,000 to ₹1,50,000+ per month depending on the husband's income. Our matrimonial lawyers help both claim and contest maintenance applications strategically.
What courts do your family lawyers appear in Delhi?
Our family lawyers in Delhi appear before all principal civil and family courts including Tis Hazari Family Court, Saket Family Court, Dwarka Family Court, Patiala House Courts, Rohini District Court Family Division, Delhi High Court (matrimonial appeals), and the Supreme Court of India. We also handle Mediation and Pre-Institution Mediation under Section 12A of the Commercial Courts Act for matrimonial property disputes.
