i am preparing to file divorce against my wife who is still staying with me under same roof, grounds will be mental cruelty.
if mutual consent divorce not possible due to high alimony demands, then i will have to go for contested one.
courts are biased towards females especially with child, i am not sure of my career prospects post this incident (am losing interest too),
i want to minimize alimony, i have no issues with giving alimony in form of monthly payments in sync with my earnings ( i am willing to increase too if my job prospects increase)
what are the factors on which alimony is decided (lumpsum v/s monthly maintenance)?
apart from the house we stay in, my hard earned savings are in form of bank deposits, FD, PPF, PF, stocks and shares.
As i know assets n liabilities are considered by judge to decide alimony, i want to say that i have no assets, how will my wife be able to prove otherwise, i did not know she is ready for divorce, so i suspect she has details of all my bank accounts, investments as i never hid anything from her
