Submit Your Online Application

The journey begins when one spouse completes our streamlined online application for mutual divorce. Once this initial fee is paid, we send a secure, confidential email to both parties to confirm their intent to move forward. To keep the process entirely transparent, both husband and wife must reply with a clear “Yes.” As soon as both confirmations are received, we provide a structured template to help you smoothly finalize your mutual settlement terms.

Finalize Your Settlement Terms & Documentation

An amicable divorce relies on clear terms. Both parties will share their agreed arrangements regarding child custody, maintenance, and asset division via email. Along with these terms, you will submit your baseline required documents—such as your marriage certificate, wedding photographs, and individual address proofs matching your local Pune jurisdiction.

First Motion Hearing at Pune Family Court

Once the petition is fully prepared and approved by you, both spouses will meet our legal team at the Pune Family Court in Shivajinagar to sign the physical copy. We file the case on the exact same day to expedite the process. During this first motion hearing, we present your petition to the judge, who will briefly interact with both of you to record your initial statements and confirm your mutual consent. For international clients, your physically appointed SPA holder must attend this session in court.

The Statutory Cooling-Off Period

By law, the court provides a six-month cooling-off window after the first motion. However, if you are looking for how to get mutual divorce quickly, we can jointly file an application to waive this waiting period, citing valid grounds. If the judge grants the waiver, we can bypass the six months and move directly to the final stage. You can read more about how courts evaluate these waivers in our frequently asked questions.

Second Motion Hearing & Final Statements

After the cooling-off period concludes (or is waived), the second motion hearing is scheduled at Shivajinagar. Both parties appear one last time before the judge to reaffirm their ongoing mutual consent. The judge reviews the consistency of the statements against the original petition and formally approves the dissolution of the marriage.

When your spouse hesitates

What if Your Spouse is Hesitant? The Pre-Filing Approach

A mutual divorce requires absolute consensus. If your partner is currently hesitant but open to communication, a formal, non-aggressive approach can often help align both parties without escalating into an ugly courtroom battle.

By issuing a structured legal notice, you officially invite your partner to the discussion table. This document sets out fair, practical settlement terms regarding property or custody, making them realize that an amicable, private exit is much better for both of you than an expensive, public dispute in the family court. In our experience, this formal step is often the exact trigger that convinces an uncooperative partner to change their mind, helping you get a mutual divorce quickly without escalating the conflict.

Recommended first step
