Legal Recovery of Maternity & Delivery Expenses for Women in Karachi
Under Pakistani Family Law, a woman is entitled to claim the expenses incurred during childbirth (delivery expenses) from her husband. Unfortunately, many women are denied this rightful support during or after pregnancy.
At GNS Law Associates, we provide expert legal assistance for women seeking the recovery of medical expenses, including maternity, delivery, and postnatal care, through Family Courts in Karachi.
If your husband or ex-husband refuses to bear these costs, we help enforce your legal rights quickly and effectively.

Pakistani law recognizes that pregnancy and childbirth involve substantial medical expenses. These expenses are legally considered the husband’s responsibility, regardless of:

Doctor’s consultation charges
Diagnostic tests and lab reports
