Domestic violence

I had filed a domestic violence case against my husband in Surajpur court in 2021 as i am residing in greater noida with my daughters. He is not paying the maintenance as decided by the court. Instead he is filing useless cases in kkd court just go mentally and physically harass me. I need divorce from him, want the flat in his name for my daughters sake and the streedhan his parents have possessed. But he is not ready to give my anything. I am a working woman, education is so expensive but I cannot switch my job due to the ongoing case. Is there any solution wherein I can get the case resolved ASAP and get a divorce decree from my husband. And he is bound to.do so with no other option left

Go for mutual consent divorce which takes only 6 months in court, if your husband agree to it.

He is ready for divorce but will mot give anything to me or my daughters. But I cannot leave my daughter's right. Can the court not grant divorce on its decision?

You can file contested divorce case on the grounds of cruelty.

Your daughters nor you can claim any share in his property including  the streedhan his parents gave, as a right.

Your daughters can claim education epenses and maintenance amount until they are married but you may also have to contibute towards such expenses equally at par with him because you are an employed person and drawing salary income..

Seek maintenance for yourself (despite the fact you are a working woman) as well as for your daughters, he is bound to pay. If he did not pay file execution petition through your lawyer.
