Contest the case tooth and nail, there is no dearth of local advocates practising  in Delhi Courts, however, it depends upon yourself for confiding with whom you can have faith for pursuing your case(s), which you will have  to search and  hand over the brief.

Custody of the child can also be sought through the same lawyer/Court.

Thank you so much to both of you. I will like to know if I will get the custody of my son. He stayed all along with her. Also, do I have to pay maintenance to her. Yes, to my son I am ready to pay but why should I pay to her. She is trying to prove desertion, cruelty and negligence wherein the case was exactly opposite.

Will a complication lead to DV against me? Also, if I contest what are the chances that divorce will not be granted?

Dear Client,

From last some years it has been observed that there is a hick in misuse of the woman protection Acts which are in fact made for their safety and not for them to be misused. On this issue and seeing the very less conviction rate at the time of the Judgement  SC has directed Police deptt. not to take any harsh step unless there is a court order for the same.

You can have our services for the drafting and further litigation representation on your behalf.

Custody of the child is a matter of his well being and so Judges see the welfare of child is as of prime importance while deciding the custody matters.

There are good chances that you can get the custody of child as he has crossed 7 years and having much proper reasons and prospects to live under father's custody. We are in Delhi only you can contact us any time.

You can make search for lawyers in Delhi through LCI base itself, there are no dearth for lawyers .

I finally found a lawyer based on friend's recommendations. Thanks everybody for your advise. My advocate has advised me not to go for responding to the petition immediately. Instead, we will request for mediation. 

We are also filing an application/ petition for child visitation. (I am not sure if it will be an application or petition). But my lawyer is saying that my application/ petition will not be heard immediately. I have to wait till I reply to my wife's petition. The other way is to talk to the mediator to help for the visitation.

My question, in these circumstances where instead of replying to the petition I am going for mediation, how can I go for visitation application that is taken up on priority by the judge. I want the court to hear my application/ petition and grant visitation on my next hearing which is due in some days.
