Legal Question in Family Law in Pakistan
Dear Sir
I have a daughter who has taken khula and now living with me. She has a child now about 6 years plus. I have got him admitted in good school and her mother is bearing his all expenditure. According to Court decision his father is giving expenses for child and to my daughter though partly. I have heard from someone that he has filed a case for custody of the child at this stage. What advice you can advise me to safeguard the interest of my Daughter and child. he is very careless type of person and the main reason for the dispute was that he was not prepared to bear the normal expenses for the maintenance of child and my daughter. What I understand that child can live with mother up to eight years. Of course father is given the opportunity to meet her his child according to prevalent law. I will be anxiously waiting for advice.

Male Child Remains with mother for 7 years while female child remains with mother till the age of puberty.. Father is liable to maintain the male child till the age of 18 years and female child till her marriage.. Above all comes the welfare of minor.. You must contest the custody petition so filed and also file suit for maintenance of child if not filed earlier.. For more consult [email protected]
