Hi,
People please guide me.
I have been separated since 2 years and the divorce case is also pending for almost 2 years.
My lawyer says that 1st the maintenance needs to be declared by the court before any decision can be made by the court on DIVORCE ?
Lawyer says that settling the issue by meeting the other party's demands is the quick thing of getting divorce.
ELSE there is wait for atleast another 2-3 years
Is this true ?
Kindly Help ...............

Settlement is always a better option. Contesting a case can be a long wait as you are advised by your lawyer.

In that case, contesting the case on its merit is the only remedy. Consult another competent lawyer in your locality or someone who is specialized in family/divorce cases.

Interim maintenance pending Litigation will be decided first. Contested div petition will take abt 2 years ; So your Adv correctly guided you. Go for MCD.

If demands of your wife are not consistent with your economical status then better to get the case decided on merits may it take some more time.
