For women navigating an Indian marriage that has stopped working
We have built this with you specifically in mind.
An Indian marriage on the inside looks different from an Indian marriage on the outside. The pressure of in-laws, the careful arithmetic of streedhan, the cost of being the one who leaves, these are not legal questions, but they are what the legal questions actually rest on. Partlee is built to take you through each, in the order that works for your situation, with empanelled professionals behind every step.
Partlee for women is a neutral, discreet way to handle an Indian marriage that has stopped working, covering in-laws, streedhan, maintenance, custody, and safety, with empanelled professionals and a named coordinator. PAN-India.
In Order, When You Want Each.
Five tracks
No. 01
Prenup
Before the wedding, in writing, what is yours, what becomes joint, and the streedhan schedule with photographs. The conversation with both families, on paper.
No. 02
Live-in
The PWDV Act covers a 'relationship in the nature of marriage'. A cohabitation agreement does not waive that, but it does record everything else, calmly, before things drift.
No. 03
Mediation
Three private video sessions with an empanelled mediator. Solo first, joint later. Mediators are matched on language, gender preference, and the shape of your situation.
No. 04
Divorce
When the conversation has run out. Mutual or contested, §13B or §13. Custody-aware drafting, streedhan-aware drafting, an empanelled firm carrying the file.
No. 05
Subscriptions
A senior personal advisor on retainer for the slow, ongoing questions, in-laws, property, a brother's separation, a contract you've been handed. Starting from ₹25,000 / month.
Where We Start with You.
Six concerns
01
The in-laws, the floor below, the joint house
Mother-in-law, sister-in-law, the family who counts your grandchildren before they count you. Where this stops being marriage and starts being a setup.

Streedhan, jewellery, the things that were yours
Itemised, photographed, and treated as your separate property, even after the wedding. We help you build the schedule, the right way.
03
Maintenance, what you can ask for, what is realistic
§125 CrPC, §24 HMA, interim and permanent. Not arithmetic, not entitlement, a clear-eyed account of what's likely to be granted in your situation.
04
Custody, in practice
Indian courts default to mother-custody for young children, but it is not automatic. What strengthens your case, and the small things that quietly weaken it.
05
Telling the family, telling the children
The conversation with parents, with cousins, with the people who will ask questions. A patient script.

Safety, if it has come to that
PWDV Act 2005 protection orders, residence rights, monetary relief. We can match you to a safety-cleared advocate before any other step.
Whenever you are ready
Five minutes, and the right track for your situation.
