Matrimony Disputes

Matrimonial disputes arise between spouses and can involve various issues, including divorce, child custody, division of property, alimony, and domestic violence. These disputes often result from irreconcilable differences, financial stress, infidelity, or communication breakdowns.
Divorce is one of the most common outcomes of matrimonial disputes. In many cases, couples may seek legal separation or divorce due to emotional or physical separation, which may lead to complex matters such as property division and spousal support. In India, divorce can be filed under various grounds such as cruelty, desertion, adultery, or mutual consent, with mutual consent being a quicker and more amicable process.
Child custody disputes are also prevalent, where both parents may vie for physical and legal custody of children. Courts focus on the best interests of the child, considering factors like parental capabilities, the child's relationship with each parent, and the child’s age.
Alimony, or spousal support, can be another area of conflict. One spouse may seek financial assistance post-divorce, especially if there is a significant income disparity. Property division also becomes contentious when assets are shared or if one party feels entitled to a larger share.
Resolving matrimonial disputes often requires legal intervention, with many couples opting for mediation or counseling to reach a peaceful resolution. If unresolved, courts determine the final judgment based on applicable laws.
