Hello Sir, if you and your wife are intending to settle the family/ marital disputes amicably. then, come to an understanding by entering into memorandum of settlement terms with regards to your terms and conditions and before the mediation centre preferably. Because, private agreements may not be safer for the long run. with regard to every term respecting the Custody of child and other terms. You also need to mention in the memorandum of all the cases those are filed by your wife against you to withdraw by your wife.

You can post this response: > Do not deposit ₹20 lakhs or create a joint FD without a comprehensive written settlement agreement signed by both parties. The agreement should clearly specify the purpose of the deposit, conditions for withdrawal, custody and visitation, withdrawal of pending cases, and consequences of breach. Where appropriate, the settlement should be placed before the competent court for recording. Proceeding without proper documentation may expose you to unnecessary legal and financial risk.
