Looking for divorce

I am an Indian Woman, married with a 2 YEAR OLD SON AND 6 MONTHS PREGNANT now.

I am being tortured by my husband so horribily both physically and mentally every day.
I am working and got my Green card and living in California, USA. My son is a us citizen.

I am looking for divorce so that way, I can get rid of from this torture and
can raise my KIDS well. I am planning to file here in USA.

I want to have my KIDS after divorce. I do not worry about money.
I am a software professional with master degree and 7 years experience.

I have self confidence & abilities to earn & raise my KIDS well. After divorce even if I dont
get any money ( we own a home & I am the coowner) thats okay.
All I care for is my KIDS. And I do not have any intention to marry again.

Please suggest me will there be any problems for me to get my KIDS after divorce.

Lets hope I get my KIDS. I want to live here for another 5 years and want to move back
to India. My marriage was in India. Suppose after I moved back to India if my husband
files a petition in India to get my KIDS, will law in India allow that? as I already got divorce in USA.


Please provide me any information that you have related to this.
 
Please consult a family attorney. You may also get help from orginasations that help battered women. Look up Yellow pages or do a search on the net... you should find atleast few.
 
Madam,

I am sorry about your situation. Just do not worry about getting custody of your children. In 99% of divorce cases mother gets the custody of minor children with alimony from Husban. If you approach any of the women's organization and tell them your situation, they will certainly help you. If you take this step, your husband will be in real trouble.

Before consulting an attorney please consult these social organizations and discuss your case in detail.

Once you get a divorce, it is valid globally. You don't have to worry about its validity in India.

I wish you all the very best and hope everything gets alright in your life. May god be with you and your children and may god put some sence in your husband's mind.

Regards,

Thank you so much for all the information,
my sincere appreciation & thanks !

Any idea, how long this divorce process might take?

I got my green card one year ago thru my husband's ex-employer.
Can he cancel my green card?

No - Green Card can only be cancelled for felonies or if there was fraud in obtaining Green card. The process ca be quick if both parties agree to amiable separation or protracted if there are custody battles etc
 
Mam

I am really sorry to hear about ur situation. Main concern here is the custody of kids here in US if both parents fight over custody.
Here it is not believed that mom can take better care of kids. They may decide based on the fact of who is earning more. Chances are more for you for custody. I am a mom too and I can very well understand ur situation. Hope everything works out well for you,
 
You are nearly 100% sure to get custody

Don't worry about the fact that your husband may earn more than you. As long as you can approve you treat kids good and are willing to get custody, you will get it. Your husband are obligated to give big portion of his income to you to raise kids. It's harsh for him. But if he is really abusing you, he has to do so.
 
Well we can not make a comment without knowing other party's complain.

Some time women could be as abusing as like man. We actually dont know the fact... In soceity man's are accused of abusing almost all the time. I do beleive most of the time man does that. But some women's are also guilty as man are.

As a husband, what will you do when you see your wife having fun with a man somewhere else? Definitely you wont be able to control your anger and here is the outcome.. abusing wife. I am just giving an example.. no offense pls.

Most of the serious family fight start with cheating.. either husband or wife. A third person engagement create the whole mess and the easy way to get out the relationship is accusion of abuse. It's a dirty secret of life.
 
Husband and wife are participant in crime. So don't feel sorry for anybody incase u haven't heard the other side story.
 
Thanks for everyone of your reply.


Habib,
I think you are giving some wrong example.

I just wanted to get some guidelines.
