Working wife demanding huge compensation.

Demands can be huge but its the court to decide. Variety of factors are taken into consideration before deciding. Raise the issue if you do not agree with the court.

if you have enough proofs like salary slip,tax returns etc then you can produce that in the court and if the court is satisfied that she is earning enough to support her living may not grant maintenance to your wife but you need to pay for your child.

you can ask for visitation rights by filing a petition.there wont be any impact over maintenance

a wife can even ask crores as compenstion per month.the court will look into a variety of factors and then only decide.so dont worry

child custody wont be usually granted to the father till the child is five years of age

Dear RL,

Dont fight the law, fight your case

1. As bsrao correctly said, demands can be anything its the court to decide the amount. If you have enough evidence like her salary slip from current as well as old company, form16, PF details bank account statement. Also her educational qualification certificates will be important. There are recent judgements that well qualified wife cant sit idle and claim maintenance from husband, attach these citations in your say.

2. For child access, go step by step. Ask for interim visitation, see wife's responce to it. If she do not allow you the visitation go for parenting plan. (Check with your lawyer if you can directly go for parenting plan, in Maharashtra this is mandetory to file parenting plan), there are judgements that 50% 50% custody is allowed.

3. In your say, tell the court how much you love your kid, and how much you miss your son. Ask for interim visitation rights, see if you pay for his expences directly and not to wife and then she pays to someone.

Whatever dispute may be between you both, but she cannot deny access to your child that too she hasn't allowed you to see the child since its birth is really high handed cruelty.  You can file a divorce case on the grounds of cruelty among other grounds that you are facing.  You can even file a case under GWA for child custody and in that you can file an  interlocutory  application for visiting your child as an interim relief.
