Hello,

If your wife is not accepting for mutual consent divorce, you can initiate the divorce process by filing divorce petition under cruelty or desertion ( to prove desertion, 2 years of continuous separation is required) ground in the jurisdictional family court. Though it will take some time to obtain the divorce, it is better than waiting for nothing.

What exactly you want you have not stated, whether you are looking for divorce or you want your wife to join you. If you want your wife to come back and join with you, you file Restitution of Conjugal Rights Petition or if you want to give divorce, file divorce petition.

Dear Client,
You need not wait for her call. You must initiate proceedings by engaging an expert advocate. You may get issued a legal notice for restitution of conjugal rights that is to say for inviting her to your conjugal house. If she will not come then, you initiate proceedings for divorce. Take expert advise and do not waste your precious time.

A divorce lawyer will file a contested dissolution of marriage if the wife refuses to grant a divorce. A contested divorce is more stressful than a mutual one. Divorce is either mutual or contested. Contested divorce occurs when the wife denies divorce.
