Legal assistance for couples and families in North East Delhi
North East Delhi is densely populated with many mixed communities. Inter-religion couples from this area usually marry under the Special Marriage Act, which does not require either partner to change religion. We explain the notice and objection stage clearly so that couples know what to expect.
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 North East Delhi are generally heard at the Karkardooma Courts, subject to the jurisdiction rules for each case.
