Legal assistance for couples and families in East Delhi
East Delhi, across the Yamuna, sits right next to Noida and Ghaziabad. Many couples here have one partner living in Delhi and the other in Uttar Pradesh. That choice matters: the notice under the Special Marriage Act goes to the Marriage Officer of the district where one of you has lived for at least 30 days, and Delhi and UP follow different registration systems.
We help with court marriage under the Special Marriage Act, registration of marriages already performed, certificate corrections, and family matters such as divorce, maintenance and custody. We do not claim a physical office in every area; consultations are available by phone, WhatsApp or by appointment.
Which authority handles your matter?
Court marriage and registration are handled by the SDM acting as Marriage Officer or Registrar for your sub-division, not by a court. Divorce, maintenance and custody for East Delhi are generally heard at the Karkardooma Courts, subject to the jurisdiction rules for each case.
