Maintenance or permanent alimony services provided by Global Law Company in family law cases in Pakistan refers to the financial support provided by a husband to his wife and children (if any) in case of separation, divorce, or pending legal proceedings. We assist individuals, typically wives, in securing financial support from their husbands after divorce or separation. It is intended to ensure that the wife and children’s basic needs and standard of living are maintained.

Under Pakistani family law, the maintenance or permanent alimony of a wife and children is a legal obligation imposed on the husband. The relevant sections of Pakistani family law that address this issue are primarily found in the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance.

Section 3 of the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961 states that a husband is bound to provide maintenance to his wife during the subsistence of marriage and also during the period of iddat (waiting period) after divorce. This includes providing the wife with residence, food, clothing, and other essential necessities according to the Muslim personal law.

Section 4 of the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961 relates to the maintenance of children. It places an obligation on the father to maintain his children who are unable to maintain themselves. The father is responsible for providing for the children’s education, healthcare, clothing, and overall well-being.

It’s important to note that the specific amount of maintenance is not explicitly mentioned in these sections of the law. The determination of the maintenance amount is based on various factors, such as the financial capacity of the husband, the needs of the wife and children, and the customary standards of living.
