By Advocate Karan Dua | Vintage Litigation, New Delhi | Published: September 2026 If you’re going through mediation as part of your divorce, or thinking about it, something happened quietly last week that’s worth understanding, because it genuinely changes how much your settlement is actually worth once you’ve signed it.

By Advocate Karan Dua | Vintage Litigation, New Delhi | Published: September 2026 We want to be upfront about something before we get into this: the ruling we’re discussing today wasn’t a matrimonial case. It involved a property dispute and allegations of forgery, nothing to do with 498A or a marriage at all. But the […]

By Advocate Karan Dua | Vintage Litigation, New Delhi | Published: August 2026 Here’s a scenario that sounds almost too strange to be real, except it happened, and it happened recently enough that it’s worth understanding in detail. A man marries a second time while still legally married to his first wife, having falsely declared […]

By Advocate Karan Dua | Vintage Litigation, New Delhi | Published: August 2026 If you’ve been in a maintenance dispute recently, you’ve probably felt like the entire conversation revolves around one number: what you earn.

By Advocate Karan Dua | Vintage Litigation, New Delhi | Published: August 2026 We get this call a lot, usually from a couple who’ve just found out about a rule nobody warned them about before they got serious. They’re ready to marry — often across religion or caste, which is exactly why they need the […]

By Advocate Karan Dua | Vintage Litigation, New Delhi | Published: August 2026 Two weeks ago, most people would’ve told you the answer was a flat no.

By Advocate Karan Dua | Vintage Litigation, New Delhi | Published: August 2026 This is one of the most distressing calls a father can make to a lawyer — his wife has left, taken their child, and he can’t get a straight answer about when, or whether, he’ll see them again. The instinct is almost […]
