Family matters are often deeply personal and, with India’s diverse religious communities and the different laws that may apply to them, they can also be legally complex. We understand that every family and every situation is different, which is why we approach each matter with sensitivity, discretion and a clear understanding of our clients’ individual circumstances. Our family law practice assists and represents clients in matters arising from personal and family relationships, including private international law, divorce, restitution of conjugal rights, domestic violence, cruelty and abuse, child custody and support, maintenance, adoption and paternity. Wherever possible, we also work towards resolving disputes amicably, helping families find practical solutions while protecting the rights and interests of our clients.
We also advise families on legal and succession-related matters involving family-owned businesses, closely held entities and wealth management. Our team assists with appropriate documentation and its registration, as well as matters relating to the formation and management of HUFs, societies, trusts and partnerships. In matters concerning succession and family property, we advise and represent clients in disputes as well as in the orderly disposition and transfer of assets through testamentary instruments such as wills and codicils. We also assist clients in obtaining heirship certificates, succession certificates, letters of administration and probate from the appropriate courts.
