Re: child custody

Madam,

It should be possible to restrain him from taking over your daughters' custody while your husband may have a right to visit her. I think your problem with complete facts and what you want from here on ? Is it a divorce OR a fair compnesation for all your marriage troubles with divorce etc only when it is clear , we can give you a professional COMPREHENSIVE OPINION.The opinion would cost Rs 7500/- by demand draft payable at Chennai in the name of S.SESHADRI by courier and email to you. You would have top sen all documents to us such as PAPERS/ PHOTOS or MARRIAGE INVITATION/ MARRIAGEW CERTIFICATE ETC OF MARRIAGE/ YOUR CRIMINAL COMPLAINT COPY ETC AND OTHER PAPERS TO SHOW HOW THESE THINGS HAPPENED ( ONLY PHOTOCOPIES NO ORIGINALS PLEASE)
