Future claims for child after one time settlement


12-Apr-2024 (In Divorce Law)
Hi, I am a working single mom and going to file 13b petition for divorce without any alimony for me. One time settlement for child has been agreed by father and is going to be given before divorce. In case the alimony amount received now is insufficient for kid's education/ marriage/other expenses, can we claim again in future for the kid even if the father is remarried?

Future alimony is exceptional and would be granted in very rare circumstances. General rule is, once you accepted an amount you can't seek more in later point of time. You calculate all needs and seek appropriate amount.
