Madam,

It is not proper to allege that your lawyer is cheating you without finding out the actual facts. First of all, visit the family court section where the case is going on and inquire about the status of the notices. The court staff will help you in this. If your husband is not receiving the notice sent to his office, you can send the next notice to his residential address with the permission of the court.

As according to me the notice which is send by court will also contains an acknowledgement card and that acknowledgement card will be revived by the court of the said person is found at address., for example if the said person is not found on the said address then the post men will return the postal cover to the court.
Now in your case you have to cooperate with the section people and also verified in Naazarat section weather the said notice is served or not. I further guide you to take file a petition u/sec 151 saying this hobble court to server the notice on the residence & then if he try to revived the notice than take an paper publication notice by the court and file the publication paper along with memo.
