Child Custody Lawyer in Delhi <\/strong><\/h1>

Determining who gets custody of the child after divorce or separation is one of the most sensitive issues that the parents need to face. Courts in Delhi are sensitive to child custody battles in all their aspects- legal, emotional, responsible, natural, or even biological parental rights. However, the right of parents over the child, in any case, is not absolute and paramount to all other rights is the child\u2019s best interest. Indian laws such as the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956, and Guardians and Wards Act, 1890, make it clear that the child\u2019s welfare is the top priority of the court while deciding the custody battle. Courts give a lot of importance to the child\u2019s emotional, educational, and physical well-being before entrusting the child\u2019s custody to parents or even grandparents.<\/p>

Child custody battles are emotionally taxing for parents and can be mentally and emotionally distressing and confusing for the child. At G.S. Bagga & Associates, our child custody lawyers in Delhi work with the utmost compassion, sensitivity, and tenacity.\u00a0\u00a0Child Custody Lawyer in Delhi\u00a0<\/b>at our firm understand your concerns and handle your case with great care to protect your parental rights while prioritizing your child\u2019s best interest. We, at G.S. Bagga & Associates, will stand by your side and help you win your custody battle, be it a mother, father, or grandparent<\/span><\/p>

Child Custody for Mother<\/strong><\/h3>

The influence of the mother in a child\u2019s life is unique and vital. The custody of the child to the mother for her rightful claim has always been awarded the primary position in the child\u2019s growth for several years. A mother is regarded as a natural guardian under Section 6 of the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956, and under Section 17 of the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890, in limited circumstances. She has substantial rights under the law and gets special consideration from the Courts in custody cases.<\/p>

Child custody lawyers in Delhi from G.S. Bagga & Associates understand the emotional and legal complexity of child custody cases for mothers. With a robust evidence-backed approach and comprehensive representation for women in Delhi, we help to protect your right to custody of the child. We will prepare your petition to the Court and present the child\u2019s best interests through every legal means necessary. We also know how to establish and preserve a mother\u2019s relationship with the child, including maternal rights after separation or divorce.<\/p>

The family court judges that children under a certain age should be with their mother since it is natural; even though they are not experts on the subject, they do believe a mother should raise her child. The court will also hear the mother\u2019s side of the story to confirm the truth of her claims. In addition, they will assess all of the aspects that we mentioned earlier in order to decide if the child is in danger or if the father should have custody. As a result, by helping the mother to get custody of the child, we place a high emphasis on the child\u2019s well-being.<\/p>

As a mother, you know your child better than anyone else. G.S. Bagga & Associates is prepared to fight for the best interests of your child, whether you are fighting for custody or just visitation rights.<\/p>

Child Custody for Father<\/strong><\/h3>

In India, the father has equal rights to apply for the custody of the child as well as the guardianship under Section 6 as well as Section 19 of the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890. It is a common perception that mothers are the preferred choice in the matter of the custody of the child. But the tides have changed in this regard, and the Court has always been of the opinion that a father plays an important role in the wholesome development of the child. If the father can prove that he is in a better position to provide a safe and healthy environment for the child and can take better care of the child, he can file for the child’s custody.<\/p>

G.S. Bagga & Associates is a team of expert and compassionate lawyers who have fought many cases on behalf of the father in Delhi to protect their interests in their children during the separation or divorce from their spouses. We will file a petition on behalf of the father for the custody of the child and will try our level best to reach an amicable solution as to the visitation time with the child, as well as custody. We will provide support for the claim that you have played an important role in the upbringing of the child, along with a demonstration of your constant love and affection towards the child, and we will present our strong arguments before the court of law. We will highlight your ability to provide financial support for the child along with proper guidance for the child’s education, health, as well as overall growth. We will make all efforts for you to either get sole custody of your child or will fight for a visitation schedule that will allow you access to your child.<\/p>

Grandparents\u2019 Rights in Child Custody<\/strong><\/h3>

Grandparents\u2019 involvement is often an important and irreplaceable aspect of a child\u2019s life, offering stability, love, and advice. Sometimes the child\u2019s parents are either dead, unfit to parent, or unwilling to parent, and custody or visitation may be granted to grandparents by the courts to protect the child. The courts will apply sections 7 and 17 of the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890, case law, and parental rights to determine the child\u2019s best interests when deciding if grandparents\u2019 rights are available.<\/p>

We regularly help grandparents in Delhi obtain legal recognition of their important and irreplaceable role in a child\u2019s life. We help them with petitions for custody or visitation, the evidence required to establish the grandparent\/grandchild bond, and demonstrate the grandparent’s ability to provide stability and care for the child. Throughout our work, we always keep the child\u2019s best interests as our main priority, but also recognize the love and support grandparents offer. Whether you are being thrust into the role of a grandparent because of a family crisis or you want legally protected rights to your existing grandparent role, we will work for you, the grandparent, so that you can continue to raise and care for your grandchild.<\/p>

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on Child Custody in Delhi<\/strong><\/h3>
  1. Who gets the child custody after divorce in Delhi?
    <\/strong>Custody of a child is not automatically given to one of the parents after a divorce. Instead, the judge makes the decision after looking into many factors. These include the child\u2019s welfare, emotional security, education, and all other factors that can ensure their overall well-being. Custody can be given to both parents who have equal rights over their children. However, in many cases, the mother is preferred when it comes to custody of children below the age of 5 years.<\/li><\/ol>
    1. Do fathers also get the custody of their child in Delhi?
      <\/strong>Yes, the father also has the right to file for custody of the child after a divorce. The Delhi court will grant the custody to the father if he can prove that he can provide a secure and stable environment, along with all the necessary needs of the child for their overall development.<\/li><\/ol>
      1. What rights do grandparents have in child custody?
        <\/strong>Grandparents may also file petitions for custody or visitation rights of a child. This can happen if both parents are dead, not interested in taking care of the child, or not fit to do so. Delhi courts may grant the custody or visitation rights to the grandparents while keeping in mind the best interests of the child.<\/li><\/ol>
        1. Is it possible to change child custody orders later on?
          <\/strong>Yes, child custody orders are not permanent. The parent who has been granted custody may lose it, and the other parent may be given custody in the future if there are changes in the circumstances of the parents. The parent can file for a change of custody if they are moving to a new place, have gotten remarried, or if the financial or emotional stability of the other parent has changed.<\/li><\/ol>
          1. Does the child have a say in the custody matters?
            <\/strong>Yes, the child can express his or her preferences to the Delhi court for custody. It is only considered if the child is of sufficient age to understand the situation. The courts usually consider the wishes of a child if they are above 9 years of age.<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>
            1. Can custody cases be settled outside of court?
              <\/strong>Yes, most of the custody cases are settled without going to trial, and parents can agree on the custody of their child by themselves with the help of mediation.\u00a0However, the agreement reached between them is recorded and submitted before the court so that the same can be made legally binding.<\/li><\/ol>
              1. How long does a child custody case take to settle in Delhi?
                <\/strong>It is difficult to predict how long a child custody case will take in Delhi.\u00a0In most cases, the custody of children is determined within a few months if the parents have reached a mutual agreement and have enough evidence to support it.\u00a0However, if the case is contested, it can take longer to reach a decision.<\/li><\/ol>
