7-Step Process of Mutual Divorce in Ghaziabad Family Courts

Step 1: Apply for Divorce Online | Fee: ₹1,000

One spouse fills out our Mutual Divorce Online Form and pays the ₹1,000 fee. This initiates a confidential email to both parties asking them to confirm their decision to proceed. Both must reply with “Yes” to move forward. If both confirm, we guide them to discuss mutual settlement terms.

Step 2: Settlement Terms | Documents

Both parties provide the finalized, mutually agreed-upon terms (child custody, maintenance, property division) and all necessary documents (address proof, marriage proof, etc.) via email.

Step 3: Draft Mutual Divorce Petition | Fee: ₹9,000

We finalize your joint mutual divorce petition and all supporting affidavits, ensuring all mutually agreed terms are accurately incorporated and the necessary documents are properly attached. For NRIs, a Special Power of Attorney (SPA) document also needs to be drafted.

Step 4: First Motion Hearing in Court | Fee: ₹15,000 (₹25,000 for NRIs)

Once your Mutual Divorce Petition is finalized, the husband and wife will need to visit the Ghaziabad Family Court to sign the petition. After signing, we file your case in court and the first motion hearing will take place. At this hearing, we will present your case before the judge, who will record the initial statements and consent from both parties. The husband and wife must visit the court. For NRI clients, their SPA must be physically present in court.

Step 5: Counselling

After the first motion hearing, the case gets listed for a second motion hearing after six months. In between the two motions, a counsellor tries to patch up the differences between husband and wife. If the counselling fails, the case gets referred for Second Motion hearing.

Step 6: Second Motion Hearing in Court | Fee: ₹20,000 (₹25,000 for NRIs)

We represent you at the final hearing where both parties reaffirm their mutual consent for divorce before the judge. This concludes the court appearances, leading to the judge’s approval of the divorce decree. The husband and wife must visit the court. For NRI clients, their SPA must be physically present in court.

Step 7: Divorce Decree from Court

Shortly after the second motion hearing, the Family Court issues two certified divorce decrees—one for the husband and one for the wife. We promptly mail these to both parties upon receipt from the court. Alternatively, the parties may collect the decrees directly from our office.
