PThe Domestic Violence Act has provisions for civil remedies such as protection orders or counselling. If you are filing a case directly in the court, you can seek these remedies rather asking the police to arrest him. Even if you file a complaint in the police station, they will not arrest him just like that.

PEvery single time he physically hurts you or your mother, go to a hospital nearby and ask them to register a Medico Legal Case (MLC).

PIf she has agreed for Mutual Consent Divorce, go ahead with it by filing it from India (based on jurisdiction). If you don’t want her to get back to you, you need to talk to her and understand what does she mean by thinking of coming back. Is she sending those texts so that she can make allegations against you that you are not letting her come back to your company?More over it’s only been a month that she has separated from you, you may have to wait for some time (without knowing all the facts, it is difficult to assume the grounds, if you have to file contested divorce). You can communicate with her through emails or messages asking her the reasons for leaving the matrimonial home without informing you. Be aware that written communications can be used by either parties in the court proceedings. So, choose words wisely not to put yourself in any trouble.
The grounds and procedure for contested divorce can be understood from here [https://divorcebylaw.com/best-contested-divorce-lawyers-in-bangalore/](https://divorcebylaw.com/best-contested-divorce-lawyers-in-bangalore/)
Mutual Divorce will be easier on both the parties. However make sure that you file and get the case settled in India. If you try to get the divorce done in India, and if your wife hasn’t participated in it, the courts here will not consider that decree. Your wife can file other cases on you.

PNot all lawyers/ advocates are the same (as in any other profession). Focus on the one who deals with the specific kind of cases exclusively or mostly. The specialization in one of the fields (e.g. Divorce, Property, Criminal, etc.) is a result of years of practice in that field. There is no need to get any specialized education for that field. You can check the number of cases filed by them through the e-courts portal to have more insight into their practice.You can also take advice from the ones who have gone through a legal proceedings and find out if they were satisfied with that lawyer.
When you are consulting for the first time, be very attentive to see if he can handle the case by himself, speaks about the fees upfront (no surprises later), sounds knowledgeable, patiently listens to your issues, doesn’t restrict you with the time limit while consulting, etc.
