Service Overview
Service Overview
Maintenance & Alimony refer to financial support granted by a court to a spouse, child, or dependent who is unable to maintain themselves adequately. Such relief may be sought during the pendency of matrimonial proceedings (interim maintenance) or after dissolution of marriage (permanent alimony).
Courts consider factors such as income, financial capacity, standard of living, duration of marriage, responsibilities toward children, and overall circumstances of both parties before determining the amount.
Maintenance claims may arise under various matrimonial and personal laws, as well as statutory provisions protecting spouses and dependents.
This service includes filing maintenance petitions, defending exaggerated claims, negotiating settlement terms, modifying maintenance orders, and enforcing court decrees.
The objective is to ensure fair financial support, protect economic rights, and secure lawful remedies in matrimonial disputes.
