Imagine a man in India, married but unhappy, who decides to leave his wife and start a new life with his girlfriend. What legal troubles could he face? And what steps can he take to avoid or navigate these challenges?

The man could face legal issues like adultery charges, divorce proceedings initiated by his wife, and potential custody battles if they have children. To navigate these, he should consult a lawyer for advice on legal separation, divorce, and property settlements. He should also be prepared for potential financial implications, including alimony and child support.
