You can file a case for maintenance in the court of law. According to the law, your husband is obligated to maintain you and your son equivalent to his own living standard. First you can send a legal notice stating the same and if does not abide by it, then you can proceed for the maintenance case as mentioned. For any further legal assistance please feel free to contact. Thank you.

If husband has qualifications to earn and still he is not earning, then also he is liable to maintain wife and his children. This has been recently observed by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. We can directly file a case of maintenance against your husband. For any further legal assistance please feel free to contact Thanks
