Can I Get a Divorce Without My Spouse’s Consent?

 

 Can I Get a Divorce Without My Spouse’s Consent? ⚖️🚪

A distressed client asked us: "My spouse refuses to agree to a divorce. Can I still file for one?"

Short answer? Yes! But it depends on the type of divorce you seek. 🤔

In India, divorce can be filed under two categories:
🔹 Mutual Consent Divorce – When both spouses agree. 🤝
🔹 Contested Divorce – When one spouse refuses to cooperate. ⚖️

If your spouse does not consent, you will have to file a contested divorce, which takes longer but is legally possible under certain grounds.
