My sister has been married for almost ten years and has two kids. She has endured a lot of domestic violence from her husband during this time. And recently we realized that he has an extra marital affair. We wanted to press for divorce. But her husband and his parents are saying that they accept their mistakes and he will not repeat such mistakes. The problem is that they said the same things earlier and nothing changed. This time, we would like to get the same statements from them written in front of a court for three reasons. Firstly, we want to make sure that they mean what they are saying. Secondly, it will also make them know that we are serious and we will no longer take any more abuse. And finally, we would like to use this to get a divorce if he does not change his ways . What is the best way to go about getting such a statement so that it has judicial binding?
Is it enough to draft one and get it signed by them in front of our lawyer on a non-judicial stamp paper?
Is there a provision to get such a statement in front of a magistrate?
