White & Black Chambers — Advocates & Legal Consultants

The Practice

Matrimonial disputes carry a private weight that commercial matters do not. Our family practice is deliberately quiet: measured advice, sealed strategies, and counsel who understand that children read outcomes, not orders.

The chamber appears before the Family Courts and the High Court at Calcutta in divorce, custody, maintenance and domestic-violence proceedings, and conducts private mediations aimed at settlement without surrender.

How the chamber helps

  • Mutual-consent & contested divorce
  • Judicial separation, restitution & annulment
  • Child custody, guardianship & visitation
  • Maintenance & alimony — interim and permanent
  • Domestic violence proceedings — protection & defence
  • Matrimonial property & stridhan claims
  • Wills, succession & family settlements
  • Private mediation & negotiated separation terms
