Look Marriage is all about adjustment as men and women more importantly two human being.If you find the relationship can not go forward and you have to buy peace then in such circumstances you need to get out of that relationship. But before getting out consult a good lawyer and collect evidence from your matrimonial home which you wint get after you leave. Mantrimandal letigation is all about planning well other wise it became time consuming.Its not cheap also.

Hi, I understand your concerns entirely. There are a few aspects that you will need to understand before I delve into greater details. 1. First of all, in such situations it is important to understand that the law is on your side. Your inlaws and husband might put the fear into you that going to Court will not make any difference as he will not give you a divorce. However, the Courts are extremely understanding towards women in particular under divorce law. You should not be confined in such a marriage. 2. You may initiate divorce proceedings under the grounds of cruelty against your husband. Further you can also initiate proceedings against your inlaws under the Domestic Violence Act which would entitle you to reside in your premises without disturbance. 3. For the period that you are fighting the case against your husband, you can claim maintenance under divorce proceedings and also under S.125 Cr.PC which would also provide you additional maintenance. 4. Now while the law is on the side of women in general, it is also extremely important that you take steps on your own part. This would mean recording of evidence, any sms's , any videos of harassment, whether your husband has engaged in any extra marital affairs, any emails which would indicate the same. This would be extremely beneficial towards you. 5. For as to how long and the duration of the case would be, that would be dependent on your husband's side of the story which I would require further details. Please feel free to get in touch for the same.
