Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Advocate Gyanendra Singh

Criminal law defines offenses against society and prescribes punishments for those offenses.

Child custody law determines which parent or guardian has the legal right to care for a child after separation or divorce. Indian courts prioritize the child's welfare considering factors like age, emotional needs, and parental capability. I help parents navigate custody matters with sensitivity and legal expertise.

Lucknow family courts consider the child's age, emotional needs, financial stability of parents, home environment, and each parent's ability to provide care. The child's preference may be considered if they're mature enough, but the final decision always prioritizes the child's best interests.

While courts may consider a mature child's preference, the decision isn't solely based on it. The child's age, understanding, and overall welfare are evaluated. I help ensure the child's voice is appropriately represented in custody proceedings.

Indian law recognizes physical custody (with whom the child lives), legal custody (decision-making authority), joint custody (shared responsibility), and sole custody (one parent has exclusive rights). I help clients understand these options and pursue arrangements that serve the child's best interests.

Custody orders can be modified if there's a significant change in circumstances affecting the child's welfare. I assist clients in demonstrating substantial changes and seeking appropriate modifications through proper legal channels.
