What legal steps can I take to get maintenance?

It's been an year since I came out of my husband's house, where I have filed for DV act and divorce and for maintenance. In the beginning I had submitted all my documents to the court and I have been following procedures loyally. But I had forgotten to submit my 2nd bank statement. Will I get punished by law or what would happen? And also I have not been given maintenance of 1 year.

To get maintainc you have to file a petition, service of notice, response from the other party, court proceedings, and maintenance order.

Mam, minor delays in document submission does not lead to punishment and you can file separate petitions regarding non - payment of maintenance by hiring a legal expert in family matrimonial cases. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
