S.Gunasekar Answer You should attend the court tomorrow. Politely inform the judge that you are in the process of appointing a new lawyer and request 3 weeks’ time to file your counter and submit witnesses properly. Do not remain absent — it may go against you.

hi, I can well understand your concern from the query raised, you yourself can appear in person and request time for filing the counter petition, it should not be an issue since you are the main individual representing with regards to a Family Court, thank you
