Your mom can file for divorce without the other's consent, usually on specific legal grounds such as cruelty, adultery, and others. Your lawyer will draft a petition detailing the grounds for divorce, including any evidence supporting your claims. The court schedules two hearings (First and Second Motion), usually with a 6-month waiting period in between. After the second hearing, the court grants the divorce decree.

Ma’am, she can file a police complaint against her husband for domestic violence and for not maintaining his wife and children. We would suggest you to file a maintenance case under section 125 crpc in which maintenance is a right for her and her children. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
