Your claim for maintenance survives even after divorce, unless you waive it by way of compromise recorded in a mutual consent divorce.
as per family court act, it is the discretion of presiding officer to allow a party to be represented through a lawyer. amendment in his petition may not have any effect on the maintenance already granted to you by way of interim order.
