It doesn't matter whether the other party is ready for divorce or not. A divorce can be filed anytime or by anyone even if the other person is not ready. Such a divorce is called as contested divorce. If both the parties are ready then such a divorce is uncontested divorce or mutual consent divorce. If one needs a good lawyer I shall suggest them to approach Siddhartha Shah And Associates as they are the best divorce lawyers in Mumbai. One can connect to them on : 093222 86663 or email on lawyersidd.
