He has terrible habits like drinking, chewing tobacco, and bad temper, which weren’t revealed before the marriage. They fight constantly, and he lied about his age; he’s 11 years older than her. What should she do?

Your sister can file a case for divorce under the grounds of cruelty, deception, and denial of conjugal rights. She can also seek maintenance and a share of her husband’s property. She should consult a lawyer to understand her legal options and proceed accordingly.

My wife and I are going through a tough time. After I got married, I had some unavoidable conversations with my ex-girlfriend for about a week. These chats were inappropriate and I deeply regret them. I’ve made a strong decision to never cheat on my wife again, but it’s too late – she’s very upset. I’ve heard conflicting advice from different lawyers about whether these chats, which contain vulgar language, could lead to a divorce. I want to know, if my wife has proof of these messages, will it be enough for her to get a divorce?

My wife and her father have been constantly harassing me and my family in Delhi. My wife has even physically hurt my mother a few times. We have major differences, and now they’re threatening to file false dowry and domestic violence cases against me. My father-in-law is very greedy and will stop at nothing to get money from me. I want to end this relationship, but we have a five-year-old child. We’re a Sikh family, and I need help protecting myself and taking action against my wife and her father. Can someone advise me on what I can do?

I married recently, but my wife left after just two weeks. She struggles with household chores, isn’t mature enough, and lacks proper education. Her family also didn’t disclose some medical issues she has.

My sister, who got married last February, has been facing domestic violence due to dowry demands. They separated four months ago. Unfortunately, she was delayed in filing a case due to work commitments. I’m seeking guidance on writing an FIR, the filing process, and where to send copies for faster action. Additionally, can she file the FIR in a printed format?

My husband and I are going through a difficult separation. After discussing it, he became abusive and threatened to make life difficult if I didn’t leave our son with him. He even said he’d fight me in court. The next morning, he calmed down and agreed to a divorce, even offering custody of our son. I asked for this in writing, which he agreed to, but later conveniently forgot. I’m living abroad and completely dependent on him. If he does give me custody in writing, can he challenge it later? Could his family try to claim rights over our son?

Now, with our child almost 2.5 years old, he wants me and our child to come back. He shows no remorse for his actions, blaming everything on me and insisting I should obey his commands.
