Hi,
A friend of mine, is separated from her husband for a period of 8 Years and has a 12 year old son from the marriage. She has been raising the son and husband only pays for the sons school fees and on a personal arrangement the child is in shared custody. Her husband used to violent and had on numerous instances physically assaulted her and this was reported to the police on numerous instances. She is now estranged for 8 years and wants to officially take a divorce /separation. The husband does not bear any expenses of hers as well and continues to threaten that he will not give a divorce or only give one if she hands over the son. He was physically utterly violent and even medical records are there of her harassment. She had hired a lawyer and filed a divorce but the lawyer was influenced in some manner and she was not even informed of the dates/summons for her appearence. She continues to be harassed over the phone. I need a good lawyer in Kolkata who can help her out and get an official separation/divorce. Kindly let me know what is the best thing to be done in this instance.

Your Question is about a lawyer to take up her case. First ask her to change the lawyer and look for one in the LCI data base itself.
