Re: mutual consent

YOu will have to take Mutual Divorce, both of you have to sit down and discuss and meet a lawyer and file a joint petition for mutual divorce. YOU yourselves can also file a joint petition. spending small should not come your way, it is better if you appoint a lawyer. they will know the procedure and will act in your absence otherwise you will have to be present on each date of hearing.

It will certainly take some time, nothing will be done fast, even though you apply jointly.

the Court has to be satisfied, then only the judge will grant a Divorce.

Please meet any lawyer you like, or you can approach mrs. Hamsa her phone No. is 22250936, Bangalore
