Domestic abuse and no maintenence
05-Sep-2024 (In Divorce Law)
Hi, my father is physically abusive towards myself , my mother , my brother and the house help. He has mentally , physically and emotionally abused us for years..my mother has been a house wife ever since I was born . My dad works on the ship and used to send very less money ...now I have come abroad to study and my brother has gone to a different state for his education. Now my father is denying my mother of any money. She is penniless and has no money from my dad.
Hello, I have perused your query. In such circumstances you have an option to file a petition/ case against your father under Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act. The Act protects women from various forms of domestic violence, including physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, and economic abuse . Further, you can claim a consolidated amount for the harassment and abuse you have faced from your father specifically in a shared household.
For any further information feel free to reach out to me.
