Contested divorce by wife-eligibility for alimony and maintainance
07-Jun-2023 (In Divorce Law)
If I am doing a job and want to file contested divorce case against my husband due to domestic violence, Will I be able to get alimony and maintainance from my husband ? And what if I am jobless and apply for contested divorce?
If you are victim of domestic violence than you will have to file domestic violence case, you are eligible for maintenance under domestic violence law as well subject to difference between salaries of you and your spouse. However you can claim damages in domestic violence as well.
You are eligible for alimony in Divorce case too depending upon allegations and evidences by both the parties before case.

Contested Divorce means when either party to marriage is not willing to give Divorce. In your case, you are willing to give Divorce, but your Husband is not. So, in case, if you come up with terms and conditions to seek Alimony either having job or without job, how will you be able to seek Divorce? Then, it will become an agreement between your Husband and you, that, you don't want to give Divorce because he is not ready to give alimony and he will say, he is not ready to give Divorce as you are asking for alimony.
