Yes, a wife can access her husband's financial details through court during divorce or maintenance cases. The court may order disclosure of salary, assets, or bank records, especially if he's a government employee. However, the husband can protect his privacy by submitting details in a sealed cover, setting up trusts, or through legal counsel. Pre-marital agreements and financial planning also help safeguard assets and limit unnecessary disclosure. For further assistance, contact our helpline.
