Legal Question in Family Law in India

How to write a format ?

Written Statement to the petition of Divorce

My wife had written 5 pages in her petition with False allegations.

My lawyer is telling No need for me to write big long Written statement he will draft it on the same day or one day before date is 23th July.

He says simply unnecessary time waste for drafting. First day in court just nominal some signature, Later after second date if my wife lawyer comes for mutual consent. That time we will have to change statement so time waste.

So please guide me.Whether I have to reply her with 5 pages or not.

Or just Lawguru answer me just this much only few line

Written Statement, and say that without admitting any contents or any kind of allegations raised or levelled by your wife in the Plaint / Petition, you consent to passing of decree of divorce. You may further state that all the allegations levelled against you by your wife are also false, frivolous and without any substance, and nothing of such sort ever happened.

Please guide me Lawguru Sir.

you may see another lawyer in your area and ask him to draft the reply in case you are not satisfied with the reply prepared by your present lawyer.
