Preliminary Step: Confirm Your Decision
Are you sure of taking divorce? It’s a difficult decision to make, and we recommend that you consult with your family members, relatives, or friends before taking this extreme step. You may also consider visiting a marriage counselor before you finally decide to divorce. When you have finally decided to divorce, you move to Step 1.
Step 1: Fill Mutual Divorce Application Form
Click mutual divorce application form. Within 24 hours of form submission, we we initiate an email conversation with the husband and wife to start the process of mutual divorce.
Step 2: Finalize Divorce Terms and Share Documents
In a mutual divorce, all the divorce terms related to alimony or maintenance, child custody, distribution of assets, etc. are to be decided mutually by the husband and wife. Once these terms are decided, we ask the husband and wife to share their documents with us. Once we verify the documents, we go to Step 3.
Step 3: Make First Payment and get Mutual Divorce Petition
After verification of documents, we ask the parties to make their first payment of ₹5,000. After receiving the payment, we prepare and share the Mutual Divorce Petition with the parties. Husband and wife are required to check the petition carefully and let us know if any changes are required. Once they confirm everything is fine, then we move to Step 4.
Step 4: Make Second payment and schedule First Motion hearing
Once the petition is finalized, we ask the parties to make their second payment of ₹15,000. After receiving the payment, we schedule the first motion hearing. The husband and wife need to visit the court to sign the file and get the case file attested via an oath commissioner. The wife also needs to bring a family member along. On the same day, the case is filed in court and it gets listed for First Motion hearing on the next day. In the hearing, the family judge records the statements of both parties, if everything is in order.
Step 5: Cooling off Period
After the first motion hearing, the case gets listed for a second motion hearing after six months. If husband and wife do not want to wait for six months, then one week after the first motion hearing, they can file an application for a waiver of six months. If the waiver is allowed, then the second motion hearing gets preponed.
Step 6: Make Final Payment and schedule Second Motion hearing
If husband and wife remain firm on their decision to divorce, we ask the parties to make their final payment of ₹15,000. After receiving the payment, we complete the second motion documentation and schedule the final hearing. The husband and wife need to visit the court again. In the second motion hearing, the honorable family judge records the statements of both parties, if everything is in order. Once this is done, the mutual divorce is granted.
Step 7: Divorce Decree
1-3 weeks after the second motion hearing, Noida Family Court provides two divorce decrees, one for the husband and one for the wife. As soon as we get it from the court, we mail it to the parties. The parties can also collect the divorce decree from our office.
