I'm getting divorced but my soon to be exDH has already filed for divorce in India. But we are both UK citizens and lived all our married life in the UK. Plus he, I and our DCs intend to carry on living in the UK in future. So it makes sense to me to do the divorce in the UK. I want to file the divorce here, but my lawyer is worried about jurisdiction issues since there is something already filed in India. She asked me to speak to a Barrister to get advice about that but I just can't afford it. Does anyone know if I will have a strong argument to get the divorce done in the UK instead of India and if so what that argument might be?
