Filed divorce on Sug14. Lawyer asked to collect notice on Aug31. On Aug31 and Sep1 he said it's not ready but took fee.On Sep2 stage shows Defect Removal and next date Oct6. Now lawyer says there are no defect and asking to wait. Is he lying? Can I check myself without him?. I had prepared the draft petition still he took 1.5 months to file and now this. Please advise.

“Defect Removal” generally indicates that some filing objection/defect was noted by the Court registry. It does not by itself mean your lawyer is lying. You can independently verify the case through eCourts/CNR or by visiting the Family Court registry. Ask your lawyer for the case number, filed petition and details of the defect, if any.

If you give me no objection from your old advocate, I will continue your case and what type of information you give with transparency. In which court your case was pending? if you want any further information you can contact me

Visit the filing counter or touch-screen information kiosk inside the court complex with the petition acknowledgment slip to review defect sheets and pending compliance. ​Certified Copies Application: File a standard application (C.A.) at the court copy branch to obtain certified copies of orders or defect notes directly from the physical file.

Hello Please check with that Advocate if there were any office objections ? That should be complied Sometimes too much work pressure delays the work. Please keep following up on the status. I hope this helps
