Family reunion case and settlement of dispute
Scenario:
My wife has gone to her father's home 1.9 years ago (within the UAE) & now she has filed a case that I should provide her & our daughter with a separate home & cover up other living expenses which I can't afford & this can be proved via financial statements as I am under loan.
I am living with my parents (4-bed villa) and we are 4 people living here. She had a separate room, bathroom; all necessities of life are covered here in my father's home.
She initiated the case at family reunion council & I went there & it didn't work. The reason she states "doesn't want to live with my parents at the union council".
In this period of 1.9 years, I myself & many other relatives have tried to sort out the matter but no success. On a number of occasions, I have asked her to come back. Proofs available (Whatsapp messages).
My question now is should I open a case of home return on her or defend the case opened by her, which is better?
Or if there is some other suggestion, please feel free to mention.
Dear Sir,
Thank you for getting in touch with me on this issue.
Considering that you and your wife are staying separately and you have financial statements to prove that you are not in a financial state to support your wife's lifestyle, you should defend the case on merits.
You have compelling evidence to show that you are willing to accept her back in your house and want this marriage to work but your wife is resisting.
We will need more details and case status from you. I suggest you email me the documents or contact me via phone.
I trust I have dealt with your query.
Regards,
Hari Wadhwana
