My husband and I divorced last year, and he didn’t even show up for the court proceedings. We have a 7-year-old son, and I received no alimony. Sadly, my ex-husband passed away in an accident last week. He didn’t own any assets, but his parents do. Can my son claim any financial support from his grandparents?

Under Indian law, your son may be able to claim financial support from his grandparents. However, this depends on various factors such as the grandparents’ financial capacity and the existence of a legal obligation to provide for your son. It’s recommended to consult a lawyer for specific advice based on your situation.

My husband and I are both Indian Catholics. He’s filed a case against me based on false accusations. The truth is, he’s having an affair with a Danish woman in Dubai and wants a divorce to marry her. The Dubai case is nearing its final verdict, and I’m deeply unhappy with the outcome. They’ve already granted him a divorce. My final judgment date is January 29th. He’s supposed to pay maintenance in Dubai, but I fear he’ll negotiate heavily and end up paying nothing for me or my 13-year-old daughter. My questions are: 1. Can I file a case in Mumbai at this stage? 2. How will this affect our joint property in Mumbai and Goa? My father paid for 80% of the Mumbai property, and I’m still paying off the Goa loan. 3. How can I ensure he pays the lump sum the Dubai court decides, instead of yearly payments until my child turns 18 or 21? 4. Can I transfer the property to my daughter’s name and become her sole guardian? He wants a share of the property, even though he never contributed financially.
