In Nepal, divorce is governed by the National Civil (Muluki) Code, 2074, and its procedural requirements are outlined in the National Civil Procedure Code, 2074. Due to the complexities of the legal system and emotional toll of separation, navigating the divorce process without experienced legal guidance can be overwhelming.
Legal Access Nepal is a leading full-service law firm offering specialized expertise in Divorce and Family Law. With years of hands-on experience, a skilled legal team, and client-focused service delivery, we help simplify and expedite the entire process of legal separation, from consultation to court verdict.
In situations where a marriage is deemed void under specific legal grounds—such as fraud, coercion, bigamy, or incapacity—an annulment may be granted by the court. An annulment legally declares that the marriage never existed in the eyes of the law.
Our legal team provides strategic representation for both petitioners and defendants in annulment cases. We also offer detailed consultations to assess whether your situation qualifies for annulment under Section 73 and related clauses of the National Civil Code.
Divorce is the official termination of the marital relationship, often involving the division of marital property, child custody, and financial obligations. The court process can be emotionally and legally demanding, especially when disputes arise.
Legal Access Nepal handles every aspect of divorce—from filing applications to court representation, mediation, document preparation, and settlement negotiations. Whether the divorce is mutual or contested, we ensure your rights and interests are legally protected throughout.
Legal Separation allows couples to live apart while remaining legally married. This option is often chosen for personal, financial, or religious reasons, or as a step before divorce.
We assist clients in negotiating and drafting separation agreements covering financial arrangements, property division, and parenting plans, while ensuring compliance with legal standards.
When parents separate or divorce, determining who will have legal and/or physical custody of the children becomes a central issue. Courts consider the best interests of the child, but both parents often contest custody rights.
Our firm provides support in negotiating parenting arrangements and, if needed, representing clients in custody litigation. We also assist in filing for modification of custody orders and visitation rights.
Following a divorce or legal separation, one spouse may be legally required to provide financial support to the other, particularly when there’s a disparity in income or economic dependency.
Legal Access Nepal helps clients calculate, claim, or defend alimony based on the financial situation, duration of marriage, and legal provisions under Nepali law. We also assist in enforcing or modifying alimony orders.
For NRNs, dealing with marital legalities across borders is especially challenging due to additional procedural steps and documentation requirements.
