yes if you have not taken divorce , you need to take divorce, without taking divorce you cannot remarry. so first take divorce ,then you can remarry, taking divorce on the ground of mutual divorce is easy and less time consuming

The mutual divorce proceedings can be done in a fast-track manner if you file the motions within the jurisdiction of the court which works faster than the rest. There are judgements which need to be adhered to while drafting the motions or it would delay the process. An expert advocate knows how to file, where to file and how to file it effectively. Good luck in searching one.

In order to remarry there should not be a living spouse according to Hindu marriage act. If you want to marry again there need to give a divorce to the husband as it clearly is a broken marriage you have been living separately for over years. Court will easily grant a mutual divorce

If there is no scope of living together and both of you have decided to set apart then you can always approach the family court according to your jurisdiction and file a petition for mutual divorce. For more legal assistance I am just a call away.

Since you separated from your husband in 2010 but did not legally divorce, you are still considered married under the law. To remarry, you must obtain a divorce decree from the court. Here's what to do: Check Divorce Status: If no legal proceedings were initiated earlier, you need to file for divorce now. If a case was filed, verify its status with the court. File for Divorce: Mutual Consent Divorce: If both parties agree, file a joint petition under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act (or relevant law). After a 6-month waiting period (which can sometimes be waived), the court will issue the divorce decree. Contested Divorce: If your spouse does not cooperate, file a contested petition citing grounds like desertion or irretrievable breakdown of marriage. This process may take longer. Key Steps: Hire a lawyer to draft and file the petition. Provide proof of separation since 2010 (e.g., documents showing different residences). Ensure your spouse receives legal notice of the proceedings. Once the divorce is finalized, you can remarry legally. Keep certified copies of the decree for documentation. If your spouse is untraceable, consult your lawyer for alternate legal remedies.
