Reg divorce.

Hi sir,

I am Ravi from Bangalore. I have been married for 7 years. We are living separately now. We lived together for very short period of time. We have 5 years old boy.
We have a lot misunderstanding and can not live together. She is not ready for divorce. She is working and earning more than me. She has bought a house. I don't have any properties on my name other than band deposit.

I am mentally disturbed and suffering from stress, depression etc because of our problem. Now she is not ready to come and stay with me. Even she also doesn't allow me to visit my son and visit her. Now she is saying i am mentally ill and so that she can not allow me into her house as well as she can not come and stay with me.

For small reasons, she used to abuse me like i am mental and good for nothing.. So in the heat of argument i have beaten her.

I feel there is no point in living like this. Because it has been seven years we are living like this. i am nearing 40 years. Now I need to think about my future also.


Please advice me what should I do?

1) Shall I go for divorce? . But she is not ready. I heard divorce processing in India take s 2 to 5 years depends on the case.
I don't have enough mental strength to fight for a long period.. If I file divorce case, she may file dowry and harassment case against me.
We went for counseling many times. But nothing worked out. She keeps blaming me and abusing me if some one asks why she stays separately from me.


2) Shall I go and live with some one with out marrying

3) As i am suffering from me stress, depression etc, i am not able stay alone. i need some one with me. If I stay like this , I will become mentally ill and will lose my job. I will be useless. Is there any way I can use this to solve my problem.


Please consider me as your brother and advice me.

Thanks

Rights of Wife on Husband's Assets

Hello,

I would like to know, according to Indian Law, if the wife has full rights to claim the first share on the assets of a Husband, who has died without stating a will.

Also let me know if the percentage share is specified in case of other legal heirs, like mother.

Thanks,
Sunny

quantum of maintanence or what will be the status of wife?

When a wife is filing for Divorce & Maintenance what will be her status is the following conditions:- 1. They have been married for past 14 years. 2. They have two children born out of the wed lock. 3. Claimant is an unemployed person. 4. Husband is not a salaried person. 5. Husband lives on the money given by his Father. 6. There is no property in the name of the husband. 7. But he is one among the share holder of the Hindu undivided Joint family property. 8. Again the property is in the name of a Company. 9. Husband’s father in law receives a huge amount as rent on a monthly basis from another undivided property. 10. The house in which claimant presently resides is in the name of the above mentioned company. In these circumstances, will the wife get a pretty good amount as maintenance? The husband belongs to a affluent family. He is adrunkard and he pays through his credit card which inturn is paid by his father. The wife is suffering from all kinds of cruelty. Physical & mental. Husband even goes upto the extent of character assasination of the wife. Can she get a permennet injuction to stay in the same house which right now she is residing and from not allowing her husband or inlwas visiting her? What will be quatum of amount which she can ask for maintenance? She was given 300 sovereigns of gold and 10 lakh wrth silver items at the time of her marriage. She has been harrssed for more dowry from time to time and the same was aslo given. Will she be able get back only the things which amounted to dowry? Or can she claim for maintenance in the above entioned conditions
