Document background
The Divorce Mediation Agreement is a crucial document used in Pakistan when couples seek to resolve their divorce-related disputes through mediation rather than traditional court litigation. This document provides a structured framework for negotiations while ensuring compliance with both Pakistani civil law and Islamic principles. The agreement typically becomes relevant when couples initiate divorce proceedings and choose mediation as their preferred dispute resolution method. It covers essential aspects such as asset division, maintenance, child custody arrangements, and other matrimonial matters. The document must align with the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance 1961, the Family Courts Act 1964, and other relevant Pakistani legislation. The Divorce Mediation Agreement serves as both a procedural guide and a legally binding document, facilitating a more amicable and cost-effective resolution of divorce matters compared to traditional court proceedings.
