Dear Mr Ketan I have come across many cases like this. I can understand your problem. It is unfortunate that you could not lead a happy married life. There are some incidents that happen in your life and those incidents are so strong that they change your DNA. At times, despite our best efforts, life takes a turn for the worst. We may have wanted different things from life, but life’s got its own plan as well. A bad marriage is something which nobody hopes for, but at times, that’s exactly what we are given and forced to face head on. Marriages are hard. Divorces…even harder. Nobody enters marriage thinking about a divorce in the end. If some are unable to cope with the harsh realities of marriage, the only viable option in front of them is to approach the Court and seek legal separation. As you know that marriage doesn't guarantee that you will be together forever, it's only paper. It takes trust, respect, friendship, faith and understanding to make it last. Moreover a relationship without trust is like a car without gas, you can stay in it as long as you want but it won't go anywhere.
Now there is bitterness in your relationship as she has called the cops once.
You have to take a call now as you how you want to proceed in life now.
You can contact the family counselor. The role of a family counselor is an extremely important one in today’s society. There are many individuals who have issues that need to be resolved yet are unable to do so on their own in an effective manner. This is where family counselors enter the picture. These individuals help others when they need to work out issues and need an unbiased individual to help them to do so. A family counselor is an individual who treats married couples or family members in order to help them overcome mental or emotional problems that may result within the home. The family counselor will diagnose any disorders and provide effective treatment measures in which to help the family members resolve their issues.
Try to sort out the issue amicably with the intervention of elderly people. If nothing is sorted then you can file for mutual divorce. Divorce by Mutual Consent, as the name suggests, means when both Husband and wife agree amicably amongst themselves that they cannot live together anymore and that the best solution is to Divorce, without putting forth any allegations against each other, in the court of law, than such a Divorce petition presented jointly before the honorably court, is known as mutual consent Divorce. It is the quickest form of divorce in India. It takes 6 months to settle the mutual divorce proceedings and you need to appear two times in court to get the order.
If your wife doesn't agree for mutual divorce then you can file a consented divorce petition according to Hindu laws.
If you need any help you can contact my assistant to book a consultation. I will help you.
