You have 100% strong ground for divorce in any court of law in our country. Hence, do not get scared or nervous on any matter whether financial or not. In accordance with law, compulsory waiting period is six months from first signing and second and final signing, in case your case falls within divorce by mutual consent and not ordinary divorce viz divorce that comes after long and heated examination-in-chief and cross-examination. Your case easily falls within divorce by mutual consent even if do not professionally engage an advocate to fight your case and appear in person in Court. I would suggest you fight your own case in person in court for divorce by mutual consent. You are guaranteed 100% success in Court.
