Dear Madam,
Thank you for reaching out regarding your situation. Based on the facts you shared, please find below the legal position and support we can offer:
✅ Legal Position:
Father’s Name on Baby’s Documents:
- As per Pakistani law, if the child is born during a valid marriage, the father’s name will automatically appear on the birth certificate, B-form (NADRA), and other official documents.
- If your husband tries to deny paternity, we can file a suit for declaration to confirm the father-child relationship legally.
Divorce (Khula):
- You have the right to file for Khula (judicial divorce) if your husband has abandoned you, is not providing maintenance, or is emotionally or financially neglectful.
- The court will issue him notices at his address in the United Kingdom. If he fails to respond, the court may proceed ex-parte.
Child Support & Maternity Expenses:
- After the baby is born, you are entitled to child maintenance from your husband, regardless of whether he resides in Pakistan or abroad.
- You may also claim maternity expenses under family law.
