It seems that you have been given wrong advice still I am not able to understand what is your query why you will pay the maintenance when you are seeking maintenance fro Your husband. There is no need to file one third of salary of your husband in court I think you have not properly understood what your lawyer has directed or inform you so it's better to consult once again I request you to come to my office along with all your relevant documents so that I can give you proper advice I have dictated the answers
