Child custody Child custody

3 years ago

Hi! I'm filing for a mutual divorce. I've been married 8 years and have a 7 year old son whose custody I wish to retain. Though my husband has no objection to this, I would like to know how to secure this legally so that in future he can't revert to asking for him. Also is it possible to get it in writing that my son will not be legal heir to my husband after he becomes an adult.

A.Dear Client
As per the prevailing legal provisions you have every right to retain your child custody, no separate legal proceedings are necessary in case there is no objections from your husband side,

A.Hello,

Till the child attains puberty, there is a good chance for you to get the custody. During MCD the consents terms are filed upon mediation and hence no issues arise! Feel free to reach out!

A.Hi,
The details of the custody will be mentioned in the terms of your divorce agreement, and the same will be enforceable by law. Your son will always be a legal heir of your husband by way of his birth.
