Child custody case

In Pakistan
Last Updated: Nov 11, 2025
We are from Faisalabad and living in islamabad since 4 years and have proved this in court. My daughter is divorced.
We filed the child custody case in faisalabad. Now they are asking for a meeting with the child. They filed the case at wrong address in faisalabad, which we found out later. Will the decision made by the court in faisalabad be accepted/valid in islamabad? Our lawyer told us that the decision here in islamabad will not be affected , and the meeting with child will also take place here in islamabad and the child will not be taken to faisalabad. Is this correct?

Islamabad has legal jurisdiction because the child resides there.
Faisalabad court filing is weak due to wrong jurisdiction.
Decisions in Faisalabad will NOT override Islamabad proceedings.
Child meeting/visitation will take place in Islamabad.
Child does NOT have to go to Faisalabad.
