LCI members,
I seek learned member's opinion on the following points.
(1) Is it true that If husband files for divorce as petitioner, he has to pay hefty alimony/maintenance than the other case of wife filing for it first? (As per my knowledge, it (alimony/maint) is based on the husband's ability to pay based on his (proved) income and properties).
(2) One of the advocate, whom I have contacted in my matter is suggesting that as the law/judges are favorable to woman, likely hood of ordering heavy alimony/maintenance is more, irrespective of whether income/properties of husband are proved (if he goes to court first)!!! as it is very difficult to prove the husband's income/property by wife's side people. Is it true?
(3) He is also saying that, as I have mistakenly filed for divorce first, I now hurriedly have to file for RCR, which would atleast save me a bit in deciding the final maintenance/alimony order. Is it true?
