She has also the right to add, any financial claim if they want, even though there is nothing from any Pre-Nuptial agreement or marriage agreement. The acceptance for the factors is as a number of years of marriage, her age, the status of the husband, his ability to pay, moral damages or compensations. The wife has also the option to choose her home country’s law or the place where the marriage got happened. It allows the wife or any spouse to choose the law of the native country.
