Ensuring the payment of maintenance for wife after divorce

My husband has filed a divorce in Dubai. Before this, I filed a case to get maintenance and I won the case.

He is paying me monthly maintenance. Would I get maintenance after divorce or I have to claim permanent alimony from my husband after divorce?

Dear Questioner,

Further to the federal personal status law of UAE, be informed that you have the right to claim the permanent alimony from your husband before the divorce.

About the total amount of the maintenance, the judge can issue the verdict for the maintenance together with divorce.

If you have any further question, please do not be hesitate to contact me on my email "ms@elnaggarlegal.com".
