you need to appoint an advocate. issue notices to concerned persons. then you can file application/petition before the Magistrate Court where you reside and summon your inlaws and husband. as per your instruction your lawyer will draft complaint supported by an affidavit and other relevant documents.

You have to file it in Metropolitan Magistrate's court where you stay. The procedure cannot be explained here. Hope this helps you. Fix up an appointment to advice you properly.
