Hi mam,
We can file a case of domestic violence where we would pray for maintenance , house to live in and protection.
Further as per your requirements we can file maintenance case separately and divorce also.
Feel free to have a word with me .
All the best

There are so many legal provisions in favour of you. Firstly you should go for u/s 498 IPC and domestic violence act. You will be certainly get major reliefs. Under DV Act you can maintenance, protection and residence order. U/S 498 IPC is also very effective provision.
