Apparently you have a good case to contest on the ground that she is well qualified and working. Further you have filed RCR. Now since law is tilted in favour of wife but court are not inclined to give relief casually to wife. You must contest both cases. Your distant posting is not a ground for not attending hearing. Cases have to be managed for getting dates. Fees depends advocate to advocate. You may contact me.

First of all, you can always ask for same date for both the cases by citing sufficient reasonable cause like hardship in traveling from remote area. Secondly, pertaining to maintenance case, a working woman or we can say a well paid wife cannot seek maintenance from her husband. There are some judgement in your favour on this legal aspect.

You'll have to attend an able Advocate to lool after these cases on your behalf. If it's becoming difficult for you to attend these proceedings you might consider the option of executing a Power of Attorney.
