Divorce Lawyer Varanasi
Best Divorce Lawyer in Prayagraj & Allahabad Family Court

Divorce proceedings in Prayagraj are handled by the Family Court which sits in Allahabad. Whether you want a mutual consent divorce or need to contest a divorce filed by your spouse — the right lawyer makes all the difference between a smooth process and years of painful litigation. Advocate Faizan Siddiqui approaches every divorce case with sensitivity and discretion. He understands that behind every legal matter is a real person going through one of the most difficult transitions of their life. His goal is always to achieve the best possible outcome — whether that means a fast, clean mutual consent divorce or a strong contested defense of your rights. With 18+ years of family law practice at Prayagraj Family Court and Allahabad High Court, he has handled hundreds of divorce cases across every religion and community.

If both spouses agree to divorce, mutual consent divorce under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act is the fastest and least painful route. The process involves two motions at Prayagraj Family Court with a mandatory 6-month cooling period between them — though this period can be waived in appropriate cases. Advocate Faizan Siddiqui handles the entire process — drafting the joint petition, preparing the settlement agreement on property and maintenance, advising on child custody arrangements, and appearing at both hearings. His experience means the process runs smoothly without unnecessary delays. The typical timeline for mutual consent divorce in Prayagraj is 6 to 18 months — or shorter if the cooling period is waived by the court.

When one spouse contests the divorce — or when there are serious disputes about custody, property, or maintenance — you need an experienced advocate who fights hard for your rights. Advocate Faizan Siddiqui has represented both petitioners and respondents in contested divorce cases. He prepares every case with detailed evidence, strong legal arguments on grounds like cruelty, desertion, adultery, or irretrievable breakdown, and a clear strategy to protect your interests throughout. For women facing divorce proceedings, he fights for maximum maintenance, child custody, and return of stridhan and dowry articles. For men contesting false allegations, he mounts a strong evidence-based defense. Every client gets complete dedication regardless of which side they are on.
