Legal Question in Family Law in India

No maintenance for 3 yrs.

Got married acc. 2 HMA in 2006 at delhi,lived with hubby in Dubai for 7-8 months whr. he worked.I came for 2 mnth. vacation alone to my parents & then to inlaws who also tortured me.So i left their home but tried to contact my hubby to take me bak but he deserted me.1 yr. later he also refused to take me bak at CAW cell.

i filed DV act case in Febr�09 against husband and MIL for compensation,streedhan & maintenance.They all refuse to accept notices.They have a lawyer

but he never comes in hearing.

2 months later my husband filed for marriage annulment in kolkata where his parents live.he wants compensation from me for harassing him by calling him to CAW cell etc,other false allegations.we got dasti but we bribed the boy and sent him back as we dont know any1 in kolkata.also my lawyer is not efficient.so we had no option.

my questions:

do we hv. 2 go to kolkata to fight this case wen a DV case is already pending in delhi whr the marriage happened?

Can he demand compensation from me?

we cant afford private lawyers.my lawyer handling my DV case is from NGO but v.careless and inefficient.my dv case is not decided yet since the past 5-6 months.please suggest some honest experienced & reasonable lawyer. I dont work.

Re: No maintenance for 3 yrs.

a complaint under domestic violence act needs to be disposed off within 60 days and you can claim the orders regarding your residence, maintenance, compensation for harassment, return of stridhan and belongings etc....a complaint under domestic violence act is the most efficacious remedy in your case and you can ask any lawyer you trust to file the complaint on your behalf. you need to meet the lawyer of your choice in order to be comfortable with him and then brief him proper for him to act fast.
