She may engage a lawyer and give her vakalat to him so he can attend court on her side.

The husband of the plaintiff wife can let in evidence on behalf of his wife. Section 120 of the Evidence Act This section of the Indian Evidence Act states that a spouse is a competent witness in civil proceedings, even without a power of attorney or written authority. A spouse can testify to facts they know, as well as facts they know about their spouse

if your lawyer is not cooperating then yo may consider of changing your lawyer instead of lamenting over it without taking any proper steps in this regard to proceed further.
