Divorce Law & Practice

Divorce is emotionally draining. In some communities a social taboo still makes it hard to accept that divorce may be the only option. The experience has manifold positives and negatives for both spouses.

Indian law provides matrimonial remedies under different statutes when continuing in the marriage is detrimental to a spouse’s mental, physical, or social well-being. The appropriate statute depends on the marriage and the parties. This note does not choose one for the reader.
