First of all you have not lost your reputation because of this marriage. You are having so many remedies in law but first you have to deside that whether you are actual need of the same. Because from your post it is clear that you are self dependant and young girl. In such circumstances you may start your new life, without looking back and if you want to take any legal action then you can call me on 09422177689 or email on adv.ksh*teej@rediffmail.com or you can also use facebook chat to discuss with me. I can prepare petition for you or guide you to take legal action in the court of law. With best Wishes

Dear Mrs.Reddy,

As a last resort is there a chance for reconcialiation from your husband and your inlaws?Or a good family councelling would be of some help?If as per your version that is not possible,just do as per the suggess tion of Assish.

i went through lot , those people many times insulted me and my parents in public.My husband harassed me mentally and physicaly My sister in laws(5) and mother in laws(2) harassed me mentally  and they provocked my husband against me.always wanted me to be under inlaws control.I felt like i lost my freedom .If a girl went through all these ,,where she need to complain??? , and my in laws and husband family they wont listen to any one .I want to come out of this evil family totally ..so what kind of justice am going to get ? people who committed sins are left to their fate ??  i dont need any compensation  , but i need money whatever ,my parents gave to them (they have demanded and took them)..reputation is lost, in our community if a girl is going for divorce or seperated or widowed ...it is still treated as bad thing .what about this??? i dont need any single penny from those peoples pocket , nothing even crores of rupees  cant be compared to girls life.I always wanted to have one marriage , one husband .happy married life..divorce is far from my thinking ..but situations made me to take step..A marriage itseld changed everything , i seen worst when i got married , i have my self respect  and dignity ....i need to stop thinking of it when am with husband and in laws , I  even felt of sucide many times ....If  my name is spoilt , what about my family members..Its just spot in family..This is INDIA ..girl is always treated as secondary ,though she is educated , working , from well settled family .

FILE NECESSARY CASES, AS suggested above. 

 

Let Court & Police do their job. 

You continue with your  Job/ carrier, forgetting past. Enjoy present. 

Time ia a healer. it will cool down your pain, and meanwhile, law will punish your husband and his cruel family. 

Your Profession can keep you busy, forgetting  sad days.

Are all the inlaws are in US? As you are in India, any councelling or amicable settlement are difficult task for such people (as described), they only understand other language. Do you have any evidence of harasment or ill treating, like recorded conversation or witness? Consult a good lawer and bring them to negotiating terms by threatening to file under relevant IPC (406 or 498a or both) and go for mutual settlement. I also should repeat here that do not file false cases against them.

Dear Mrs.Reddy,

My heartfelt sympathies for the mental and physical turmoil you experienced with your husband.To be frank your's is not the first case,there are thousands of NRI victims,some of them dare to make it public and some keep on experiencing the same kind of treatment.
