Frequently Asked Questions About Mutual Consent Divorce in Delhi

We've compiled answers to the most common questions we receive about mutual consent divorces.

What is the minimum time required for a mutual consent divorce in Delhi? +

The minimum time for a mutual consent divorce in Delhi is approximately 6 months. This includes the mandatory 6-month cooling-off period between the first and second motion. However, the actual timeline can extend to 7-8 months when accounting for document preparation, court filing delays, and hearing schedules.

Can both spouses live in different cities and still file for mutual consent divorce in Delhi? +

Yes, absolutely. The jurisdiction of the family court is determined by where either spouse resides. If one spouse is in Delhi, the case can be filed in Delhi courts. We can handle cases where spouses are in different cities or even different countries through video conferencing and digital documentation.

What if we have children? Can we still file for mutual consent divorce? +

Yes, you can file for mutual consent divorce even if you have children. However, you must have a clear agreement on child custody, maintenance, and education. The court will ensure that the child's welfare is protected. We help draft comprehensive custody and maintenance agreements.

What happens if one spouse wants to withdraw consent during the cooling-off period? +

Either spouse can withdraw consent during the 6-month cooling-off period, and the divorce petition will be dismissed. This is why the cooling-off period exists—to give both parties time to reconsider. If withdrawal occurs, the couple would need to file a fresh petition if they decide to proceed with divorce later.

Do both spouses need to appear in court for both hearings? +

Yes, both spouses must appear in court for both the first and second motion hearings to confirm their mutual consent before the judge. This is a mandatory requirement. However, if one spouse is abroad or unable to travel, we can request the court to accept video conferencing or grant exemption in exceptional circumstances.

What documents do we need to bring to the first court hearing? +

You'll need to bring original documents including marriage certificate, Aadhar cards, address proofs, and any other supporting documents as advised by your lawyer. We prepare a detailed checklist for you before the hearing. Our team will also brief you on what to expect during the hearing.

Can we modify the settlement agreement after filing the petition? +

Modifications can be made to the settlement agreement before the first motion hearing. However, once the first motion is filed and the cooling-off period begins, changes become more complicated and require court approval. It's crucial to finalize all terms before filing.

What is the cost of a mutual consent divorce with Bhatla Law Firm? +

Our fees vary based on the complexity of your case, property involved, and settlement terms. We provide transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden charges. We offer a free initial consultation where we'll assess your case and provide a detailed fee estimate. Call us at +91-9899004529 to schedule your free consultation.

How long does it take to receive the divorce decree after the second motion? +

Typically, the judge grants the divorce decree immediately after the second motion hearing if all conditions are satisfied. You receive certified copies of the decree within 2-4 weeks. We'll provide you with all necessary certified copies for official purposes.
