DI am reaching out to seek legal advice and assistance regarding child support. I am not from India, but my ex-boyfriend who is an Indian citizen is the father of my 5-year-old daughter.
He is not consistently helping me in raising or supporting our child financially. I would like to know the legal steps I can take to make him contribute monthly to our daughter’s support, especially considering that he lives in India and I do not.
I would appreciate your guidance on whether I can file a case in India, what documents or evidence I would need, and what the process would look like.

SYour child is entitled to maintenance and inheritance irrespective of whether you both are married or not and both parents are obligated to provide financial support to the child. You can claim child support and can use DNA test as proof
Amount of money received from the child support would depend on your bf’s income and financial status
(note: Though your baby is entitled to maintenance, he is not entitled to the property of your bf unless the property is ancestral or your bf passway without a will)

SThats wrong. Child has inheritance rights on his/parents assets. Indian law always considers the best interest of the child in such cases.

YName and shame him . I am sorry to have to say this and this is probably not what you would want to do but make it public that he is the father of your child and has been inconsistent in his duty.
You would be surprised what societal pressures can make a person finally act right. Especially Asians.-

DHis a lying piece of shit. He said to his family members that his giving every month and making exaggerated amount. He will tell them ohhh shes just asking for me i already sent her this and this and she still wants more. They all believed him even if i show them the bank proofs and bank statements that his not.

Try them. Hopefully someone helps you pro bono.
Otherwise, hire a lawyer who can do the proveedings on your behalf via them.
Lastly, do NOT try to visit India. If he doesn’t care for his own daughter which in my opinion is a the lowest grade of human who is to say he may not try to harm you in any way. -

MWould need more details.
Is father residing in India? Or just Indian citizen?
Claiming maintenance(child support) may require visits to India.

LIs the baby even actually his? I don’t trust you. If the baby is his, prove it in court and then you can get child support. But, if you’re not married, I don’t think courts will allow it. Downvote me all you want. I don’t care.
-
DIts actually his. He signed all the papers to prove that the baby is his. We have DNA and affidavid of Paternity signed and notarized
