Dear IHM,

After almost eleven years of a passive abusive relationship, I have finally decided to go ahead and seek judicial separation, however I am concerned about my 7 years old daughter’s future considering I have nobody on my side of the family. I have no siblings and my mother is 70.

I am highly qualified but not working due to mental health issues (depression) and some medical issues.

My husband is apparently in a relationship with someone but he has never admitted and I have no evidence to prove it. How can evidence be collected for adultery?

What all conditions must be put in a mutual settlement agreement for the safety of my little girls’ future? Her father owns no immovable Property, only monetary savings etc.

He is in a private sector job which he is about to quit (seems to avoid paying alimony/maintenance.)

What should I do?
