Dear Client
I can't make out if you have initiated divorce proceedings. But according to me the best way is to file for mutual divorce and try to negotiate terms od settlement in court through mediation by lawyers and judges. You can also have pre litigation mediation before family welfare committee or outside court between parties and lawyers since all of you are educated and mature. If you wife is not ready for a mutual divorce you can file for a contested divorce under Section 13 on the basis of cruelty and you can file for custody under section 26 and seek division of joint property between you and your wife under Section 27. In this manner all your remedies will be sorted out by filing a consolidated petition before a single judge without having too many litigation. Please feel free to call and discuss in person.
In case your wife files divorce petition you can get your matter referred to mediation cell and both of you can discuss the modelities of this joint property and child is of 14 years age even his consent to choose the parent will be taken by court and court will consider paramount interest of child while deciding custody issues Further whoever takes the custody other parent can have visitation rights
