Family & Matrimonial Laws

Key Services & Areas of Practice

Divorce

Divorce is the legal dissolution of a marriage in accordance with the applicable personal or matrimonial law. It may be sought on legally recognised grounds or, where permitted, by mutual consent of both spouses.

Judicial Separation

Judicial separation permits spouses to live separately under a judicial order without formally dissolving the marriage. The marital relationship continues in law, although the obligation to cohabit may be suspended.

Restitution of Conjugal Rights

This is a matrimonial remedy through which a spouse may seek restoration of marital cohabitation when the other spouse has withdrawn from the society of the petitioner without lawful or reasonable justification.

Annulment of Marriage

Annulment is a legal declaration concerning the validity of a marriage. Depending on the applicable law and circumstances, a marriage may be declared void or voidable on specific statutory grounds.

Domestic Violence Proceedings

Domestic violence proceedings concern allegations of abuse or violence within a domestic relationship. Depending on the facts and applicable law, relief may include protection orders, residence-related relief, monetary relief, compensation, and custody-related directions.

Cruelty Against Women

Cruelty may include physical, mental, emotional, or other forms of harassment or ill-treatment recognised by law. The facts of each case determine whether civil, criminal, matrimonial, or other legal remedies may arise.

Child Custody & Guardianship

Child custody concerns the care, residence, upbringing, and welfare of a child, while guardianship concerns legal responsibility and authority. Courts generally treat the welfare and best interests of the child as a central consideration.

Maintenance

Maintenance refers to financial support that may be claimed by an eligible spouse, child, or dependant under applicable law. It may include interim support during proceedings as well as longer-term or permanent financial relief.
