January 21, 2025 at 7:08 pmMy cousin brother got married in 2022 to a woman who had been having an affair before the marriage. Her parents forced her into the arranged marriage, and she didn’t confess about her past until after the wedding. She showed little interest in household activities and seemed disconnected. When my brother asked to borrow her phone to make a call, she refused, citing it was her personal phone. This raised suspicions.Upon investigation, her phone revealed evidence of her infidelity, including chats and messages. Furthermore, bank statements proved that she has a nearly 8-figure bank balance, demonstrating her financial independence. Despite this, she’s seeking alimony and monthly maintenance.
We’ve submitted these evidence, including social media chats and bank statements, to the court, but the case still favors her. It seems the Indian judicial system prioritizes the woman’s claims, regardless of evidence.
The woman has also filed a counter-complaint, alleging that my brother’s mother tortured her. They’ve appealed to a higher court, but haven’t received a response yet. My brother’s family has endured years of emotional and financial pain. I’m seeking advice from a good lawyer to help them.

January 22, 2025 at 12:31 pmThis ideally should have a simple solution where alimony can be calculated basis existing factor and not just demanded to be a random amount. But that does needs effort and intent which our govt lags
I am a woman going through divorce and see so many other women around me suffering as well so I dont believe men are the victims. But I agree the law for alimony and child maintenance should be clear and as per requirement. It seems like women can demand any amount which is crazy.

January 21, 2025 at 9:58 pmWoman’s parents manage to fuck up multiple lives at the same time. Master stroke. Why do the parents do this if they know the guy’s life is going to get ruined in all this? Fuck this country and their obsession with social acceptance. Log kya kahenge nonsense.-

January 22, 2025 at 3:24 pmBecause of their so called Respect. They forget this respect when their doll is fucking her baba doll. Only when these affairs had happened then the reality hits these dual mentality parents. Suddenly the society and Sharma ji starts haunting them. Their reputation gets at stake. And they decide to force her to break up and go for arrange marriage.
But it’s obvious for doll to not forget her lover.
It’s not the Women’s fault at all. She always was right stating that she either wants to marry her lover or don’t want to marry anyone.
But Suddenly parent’s reputation gets at stake here because wait what will the parent’s chahcha who don’t give 2 cents about his reputation will think if their doll goes for a love marriage.
And so they decide to ruck up the lives of a clueless man’s family. I mean why not, anyways if things go wrong then alimony is there na.

January 25, 2025 at 11:38 am**-NAL-**Hire a really good lawyer from the very beginning. A bad one will prove to be very expensive down the line.
* Shortlist 5-6 good lawyers who practice at court having jurisdiction.
* Approach one for consultation and ask him about what course of action he recommends.
* Then approach the next one doing the same.
* If the 2nd one’s suggests something different, then pitch him the previous lawyer’s idea as your own and his opinion on it. Ask for legal reasoning he claims there are any flaws with the previous lawyer’s idea.Repeat the last two points with the remaining shortlisted lawyers before zeroing down on one to fight your case.
Also, do your own extensive research about remedies against wives available to husbands, common misconceptions, etc. before approaching them. Clear any doubts with them too.

January 22, 2025 at 5:27 amYou will HATE me but I believe this situation of men is because of men only. Men supported stupid feminism. Feminism like women is special, kyu bhai special just because she is women she is special. How can a female who doesn’t have career and dependent on someone else is special? Equality has to be there. Equality in legal system is a huge part of equality. At least, now men should stop simping and stop giving special treatment to a women, just because she is women by birth.-

January 22, 2025 at 6:44 amWhat are the specific cases filed by her can you share?You guys should had filed for annulment of marriage since wife’s consent was forced by her parents and that the husband and his family was lied to about her past relationships (which are still ongoing in the marriage)
You can get harassment and similar fir quashed if they are vague allegations and no specific incident is shared. Many such judgements have been made in the past.
Consult a good lawyer.

January 22, 2025 at 3:17 pmEverything is useless. Just go for mediation. And discuss things only with mediator 1:1 and try to lower the alimony as much as possible. Don’t agree for monthly maintenance.
If she asks 1Cr then you tell the mediator you can do 5 Lakhs. Then slowly keep increasing it by 1 Lakhs or 2 Lakhs till a final amount emerges. This happens mostly when the mediator is tired of both sides’ shit. And keep praising the mediator throughout the mediation rounds. If you see that the mediation is failing just short of 2-4 lakhs then agree to it(it may be hard to give) but the mental peace is worth every penny. -

January 22, 2025 at 10:45 pmFirst you and your family should also talk to a lawyer even though you are a woman to be prepared for upcoming false cases. Remember that one of the top reasons women are arrested in India are DV laws and 498A.[https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/1-in-10-women-arrested-in-india-is-from-maharashtra/articleshow/94735026.cms](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/1-in-10-women-arrested-in-india-is-from-maharashtra/articleshow/94735026.cms)
Ask your cousin to hire the top lawyer in his state even if they have to sell their property. Top lawyers know the nuisance of the laws and can better help your client so that he and your other family member won’t have to languish in jail waiting for bail.

January 25, 2025 at 5:13 pmGoing by what I’ve been seeing of Indian men’s situations vis-a-vis divorce laws, your cousin brother is not going to be able to get out of this unscathed or even fairly.The women in India who are torturing their spouses thus have no idea of karma and the concept of sin. And those women who are truly suffering at the hands of men are not helped one bit by these laws.
And out of court settlement may be the only realistic avenue to let go completely.
Make no mistake, that woman and her future will be destroyed at her own hands. Your brother should move on and restart with all the vigor he can muster. Nothing is eternal, even pain.
