In this episode of Figuring Out Podcast we are in Conversation with Advocate Vandana Shah. Vandana is famous and among the top female divorce lawyers based out of Mumbai and Pune . She is also an author, columnist and Social Entrepreneur on whom the BBC has made a documentary ‘Invisible Women of India’ which was broadcast worldwide on International Women’s Day. She is also the author of the bestseller ‘Ex Files’, The Story of my divorce-published by Penguin.

After being thrown out of her marital home with just the clothes on her back and Rs 750 in the bank, Vandana rebuilt her world and founded the first support group in India to help people going through a divorce, 360 Degrees Back to Life. She has since come full circle from being a litigant to being a divorce lawyer and practices at the family court in Mumbai.

Vandana has been awarded best lawyer in India and has been handling various high profile cases. She practices extensively in the family court where she works to defend those who come to seek justice in the court. She does not believe that money is the key that drives a lawyer to perform well but passion for truth is.

In this episode we have discussed everything related to relationships, marriages and divorces.
