Divorce and family lawyer for Uttar Pradesh
From the head office in Meerut, Advocate Aayush Agarwal serves families across western Uttar Pradesh — Meerut, Ghaziabad, Noida, Hapur and nearby — and UP families living abroad.
Marriage registration in Uttar Pradesh
Uttar Pradesh requires marriages to be registered, and the certificate is useful proof in a divorce petition, a passport or visa application and a maintenance claim. A marriage that was never registered is still valid if the ceremonies were performed, and we will explain how to prove it.
Courts for divorce in Uttar Pradesh
Family courts operate in many UP districts, and where there is none the district court hears matrimonial cases. Appeals and writ petitions go to the Allahabad High Court at Prayagraj. Court practice, forms and listing differ from district to district, so local knowledge saves time.

- Meerut — head office, with meetings by appointment.
- Ghaziabad and Noida (Gautam Buddh Nagar) — served by phone, WhatsApp and video, with meetings in Meerut or Gurugram.
