Family Law
“Providing compassionate guidance and strong legal representation in marital dissolution, partition of property (Ansha), child custody, alimony, succession, and adoption under Nepali law.”
Overview
Family legal disputes require a legal strategy that balances rigorous courtroom advocacy with empathy, sensitivity, and privacy. Under Nepal’s National Civil Code 2074 (Muluki Devani Samhita), family law frameworks govern marital relations, division of ancestral assets, guardianship, and inheritance rights. At Singh Law Company, our Family Law practice supports individuals and families through emotionally complex legal transitions.
Whether navigating mutual consent divorce, securing ancestral property rights (Ansha), negotiating child custody, or resolving succession claims, our advocates prioritize out-of-court mediation where possible and assertive representation when litigation becomes necessary.
