WHAT IS A MUTUAL CONSENT
DIVORCE AND HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
Briefly, as the name
suggests, mutual consent divorce is an option available to couples seeking a
divorce mutually without mudslinging. It is a no allegations divorce.
Certainly, it is the fastest and easiest way to obtain divorce in India. Thus,
parties should ideally try to avoid a long drawn litigation by seeking a
divorce by mutual consent. As per law, duration for obtaining a mutual consent
divorce is six months. Although, parties may have an option of filing the
second motion petition any time between six months and eighteen months from the
date of the filing of the mutual consent divorce petition. Thus, we firmly
believe that family lawyers should first try to convince the parties to
mutually part ways and seek a mutual divorce over a contested divorce.
