Dear Client, you can't claim maintenance from your in-laws as only your husband is liable for your maintenance, another fact is that you are earning whereas your husband is jobless, so its almost very difficult to get maintenance from him. the only remedy available to you is that you can claim property from your in laws through your children but it depends on the nature of property. i advise you to immediately consult some good lawyer and get some proper advise by explicating the complete and true facts, for further clarification you can call/meet me.

Yes you can seek maintenance from your husband. you can file a case of domestic violence against your husband and also in-laws and seek maintenance from them for your self and your children and you can also seek residential accommodation of equal standard for yourself and your children. Maintenance alimony can be claimed u/s 125 cr.p.c. for more discussion you can approach to us.

No, you can not claim maintenance from your in laws under the law of the land. Moreover you yourself are working, it goes against you further. You can ask for maintenance only on humanitarian grounds.
