Who I Am – Divorce Lawyer’s Perspective

I am Sunita Sharma, a practicing divorce and family law advocate with over 15+ years of hands-on litigation experience in Gurgaon as well as in Noida and Delhi.

I do not approach divorce matters as files or transactions. As a lawyer, I approach them as sensitive legal conflicts involving emotions, finances, children, reputation, and future stability. My role is to protect legal rights, reduce damage, and achieve enforceable outcomes through law, not assumptions.

I personally handle:

  • Divorce litigation strategy
  • Court pleadings and arguments
  • Drafting petitions
  • Evidence preparation
  • Settlement negotiations
  • Enforcement of court orders

Types of Divorce I Handle as an Advocate

1. Contested Divorce - Lawyer’s Strategy

A contested divorce arises when one spouse does not agree to divorce or disputes terms such as maintenance, alimony, child custody, or property.

As a divorce lawyer, my role includes:

  • Identifying strong legal grounds (cruelty, desertion, adultery, mental harassment)
  • Drafting precise divorce petitions
  • Building documentary and oral evidence
  • Cross-examining the opposite party
  • Protecting against false allegations
  • Securing interim reliefs (maintenance, custody, protection orders)

2. Mutual Divorce – Advocate’s Legal Process

A mutual consent divorce requires:

  • Free will of both spouses
  • Agreement on alimony , custody, and settlement
  • Compliance with statutory timelines

As a lawyer, I ensure:

  • Legally valid settlement terms
  • Protection against future disputes
  • Proper drafting of consent petitions
  • Waiver of cooling-off period where legally applicable
  • Court-approved final decree

Contested divorce Mutual divorce is not just paperwork — one incorrect clause can lead to future litigation.

Maintenance & Alimony - Advocate’s Legal View

What Is Maintenance?

Maintenance is financial support granted by the court to ensure a spouse can maintain a standard of living.

How Courts Decide Maintenance (From Practice)

Courts assess:

  • Income of both parties
  • Assets and liabilities
  • Lifestyle during marriage
  • Duration of marriage
  • Children’s expenses
  • Earning capacity (not just current income)

As a divorce lawyer in Gurgaon, Delhi NCR, I regularly argue:

  • Interim maintenance
  • Permanent alimony
  • Modification of maintenance orders
  • Enforcement of unpaid maintenance
