Divorce Lawyer in Prayagraj — Allahabad Family Court

Divorce proceedings in Prayagraj are conducted before the Family Court, which sits in Allahabad. The process and applicable grounds differ depending on whether the divorce is sought by mutual consent or is contested, and on the personal law applicable to the parties. Advocate Faizan Siddiqui handles divorce cases at Allahabad Family Court with sensitivity and care. He provides an honest assessment of the available legal routes, realistic timelines, and what each stage of the process involves. Every matter is handled with complete confidentiality. The practice covers divorce matters under the Hindu Marriage Act, Special Marriage Act, Indian Divorce Act (for Christians), Muslim personal law, and other applicable personal laws.

Mutual consent divorce under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act is available where both spouses have agreed to dissolve the marriage and have lived separately for a period of one year or more. The process involves the filing of a joint petition, a mandatory cooling period of six months between the first and second motion, and solemnisation of the divorce by court order. In certain cases, the cooling period may be waived by the court. Advocate Faizan Siddiqui assists in preparing the joint petition, drafting any settlement agreements, and appearing at both motions before Allahabad Family Court. The typical timeline for mutual consent divorce in Prayagraj is approximately six to eighteen months, depending on whether the cooling period is waived and on court scheduling.

Contested divorce arises when one spouse does not consent to the dissolution, or when there are significant disputes about custody, property, or maintenance. Applicable grounds under the Hindu Marriage Act include cruelty, desertion, adultery, and certain other specified grounds. Advocate Faizan Siddiqui represents clients on both sides of contested divorce proceedings — preparing detailed petitions with supporting evidence, filing interim applications for maintenance, and appearing at all hearings before Allahabad Family Court. For respondents contesting the divorce or allegations made in the petition, he prepares a defence based on the facts of the case and applicable legal provisions.
