My husband and his family physically abused me in front of our neighbours a year and a half ago, forcing me to leave their home with my son. We’ve been living with my mother since then. Recently, my husband filed a case against me, claiming grounds that aren’t valid. I’m worried because there are other cases pending, including a Domestic Violence Act case where he was found guilty. What should I do?

You should immediately consult with a lawyer specializing in family law in India. They can advise you on the best course of action considering your previous case and your husband’s current claims. Be prepared to provide evidence of the abuse, including witness statements from your neighbours.

Next Article I wrote a heartfelt letter to a girl, expressing my feelings and wanting to meet her family. She was startled, and her reaction was quite strong.

I believe the charges will be dropped eventually, but can I stop the court from formally accusing me? I’m worried this might hurt my future. Would it be wise to ask her to appear in court and help dismiss the case before it goes any further? This would be the best way to save my career.
