Dr. Jasdeep Kaur is a New Delhi advocate with a Ph.D. in Family Law and over 11 years of legal experience, practising in divorce and matrimonial disputes, child custody and visitation, maintenance, domestic violence matters, and related family law litigation.
This website provides general professional information only. Contacting the advocate through this website does not by itself create an advocate–client relationship, and no legal outcome is guaranteed.
Dr. Jasdeep Kaur is a New Delhi advocate whose practice is centred on divorce and family law — matrimonial disputes, child custody and visitation, maintenance, and domestic violence matters. Her doctorate in Family Law and published research on maintenance rights and domestic violence sit behind the practical advice she gives, and she also accepts instructions in civil litigation, criminal defence, corporate matters, and legal and taxation consultation.
Family matters demand more than a reading of the statute: they demand an understanding of the people involved. Her academic research in family law, together with experience as a Law Officer for the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi and contributions to child welfare initiatives, informs how each matter is analysed and how sensitively it is handled.
Legal advice is only as sound as the understanding of the facts behind it — which is why research, careful listening and clear communication sit at the centre of the work.
Divorce and family matters are the centre of the practice, supported by experience in the areas families most often need alongside them. Whether a particular matter can be taken up depends on the facts, applicable law and professional engagement.
Representation and guidance in divorce proceedings — contested and by mutual consent — with attention to legal rights, confidentiality and the welfare of everyone affected.

Academic research and legal scholarship complement practical legal work. Doctoral study and published research require close reading of statute, precedent and policy — the same discipline applied when analysing the facts of a client's matter and explaining the available options in plain terms.

Enquiries about divorce are welcome, whether or not the divorce is agreed. There are two broad routes: divorce by mutual consent, where both spouses agree to dissolve the marriage and its terms; and contested divorce, where one spouse petitions the court on grounds recognised by law and the other may contest it. The right route depends on the facts of the marriage, and those are discussed at a consultation.
Whether a particular matter can be taken up depends on its facts, the applicable law and professional engagement.
Questions of custody, guardianship, visitation and access are decided by the court on the guiding principle of the welfare of the child — not on the wishes of either parent alone. Arrangements can be agreed between parents or determined by the court where agreement is not possible.
Matters involving children are handled with attention to their welfare and to confidentiality, informed by doctoral research in family law and work with child welfare initiatives.
Maintenance for a spouse — and for children — can be sought during matrimonial proceedings and, in some circumstances, independently. The court considers factors such as the means of the spouses, the standard of living during the marriage and the needs of any children. Entitlement is never assumed in advance; it depends on the facts and the applicable law.
Maintenance rights are also an area of published research, so the practical advice is grounded in a close study of how courts approach these claims.
The law provides civil protections — including protection, residence and monetary reliefs — alongside related remedies. Maintenance claims can accompany these. What is appropriate in your case depends on your circumstances, and the options are best discussed privately and in confidence.
If you are in immediate danger, please contact the police first. Legal remedies work alongside, not instead of, immediate protection.
It helps to have a short written summary of events in date order, and copies of any relevant documents — for matrimonial matters, typically the marriage certificate, evidence of residence and income details, and any notices or court papers already received.
Please do not send original documents or confidential material in an initial enquiry. Bring or share them only once an engagement has been confirmed.
You may submit the enquiry form in the contact section, call or send a WhatsApp message on the number listed there, or write to the professional email address given. Please share a brief outline of the matter and the best way to reach you.
A consultation is arranged only after the enquiry has been reviewed and terms of engagement have been agreed.
Enquiries are treated professionally and with discretion. Please note that sending an enquiry through this website, by email or by message does not by itself create an advocate–client relationship; that relationship arises only when the matter has been accepted and the terms of engagement have been agreed. Until then, information shared is not protected by professional privilege in the same way as information provided under a confirmed engagement.
For that reason, please keep an initial enquiry brief and do not include original documents or highly sensitive material.
No. The content of this website is general professional information only and is not legal advice. Legal advice depends on the specific facts of a matter and the law applicable to it.
Please do not rely on anything on this website as a substitute for advice on your own circumstances.
If you need information about a divorce, a family matter or another legal issue, you may submit an enquiry using the form below or the contact details alongside it. Please avoid including confidential documents or highly sensitive personal information in the initial enquiry.
