Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for your query. Since both husband and wife are willing to obtain a mutual consent divorce and there is no major dispute, the process is generally smooth. The usual documents required include: * Marriage Certificate (if available) * Marriage photographs * Aadhaar Card/PAN Card of both parties * Address proof of both parties * Passport-size photographs * Details regarding children (if any) * Settlement terms regarding alimony, maintenance, stridhan, child custody, etc. (if applicable) The petition is filed before the Family Court. The time required depends on the facts of the case and the court’s schedule. In appropriate cases, the statutory cooling-off period may also be waived by the Court subject to legal requirements. Our professional fee for handling the mutual consent divorce matter is ₹35000 (plus actual court expenses, if any). Online consultation through WhatsApp call/video call is available and is chargeable. You may share your convenient time for scheduling the consultation.

For a mutual consent divorce under the Hindu Marriage Act, the process involves filing a joint petition before the Vadodara Family Court. The process requires two motions; after the 1st motion, there is a statutory cooling-off period of 6 months, though this can sometimes be waived via a waiver application depending on facts. The 2nd motion must be cleared to get the final decree, taking roughly 6 to 18 months overall. Required documents include marriage photos, the certificate, ID proofs, and a signed settlement deed regarding any mutual terms. Legal fees vary based on complexity. A direct consultation, including over WhatsApp, can easily be initiated once your contact profile is shared by the platform.
