Hi Experts,
I filed divorce case against husband . he contested the case by giving valakta to his mother's native lawyer.
But the advocate who gave valakta for the respondent is not coming to court his clerk (who is not advocate) represented the court for almost every hearing date.
6 months back we met one lawyer in our place and discussed my case with her , she told she cant have capability or experience in dealing the divorce case. so we did not give her valakta. she took my other party's details during case study and she made some dealings with them 6 months ago itself.
Now , she is representing in the court for the respondent's side without vakalta. Other side did not file any application to judge that she is their lawyer?
Is any lawyer come and represent by themselves for anybody? or vakalta is mandatory?
Can you please tell me process of this?
Thanks,
Swetcha
