Dear Mousomi,
Since you shared about the case, please allow me to ask, if you have a Psychologist or a Therapist for your employees? Life-cycle cases would pop-up every now and then. You can create an employee friendly environment by designing work functions that will take care of their needs. That will support their professional growth.
However, to make their lives better, please consider hiring a Psychologist. Your employees may not share their personal concerns at work with their friends and peers. However, being able to open up to someone who can help them with coping skills and personal development, will make them collectively more effective.

Mousmi,
I agree with (Cite Contribution). It is very important to build a trust based support system. For most smaller companies, a full time psychologist may look like a cost center when the pressure is to create profit centers only. In that case having a part-time consulting counselor serves the purpose. It is also important to look at the efficiency that a well supported and high morale team brings to the system, and hence in an oblique way this actually lends to increased work output and consequently higher profitability.
Being unbiased, non-gossiping, and supportive of your employee going through personal challenges always works out for your organisation. None of these are legal liabilities, but are still good HR practices. However, do keep an eye open for abuse of your leniency. I have seen people take their employers for granted when they are going through personal challenges. You need to be polite, but firm and let people know the limits of the supportive rope.
Cheers.

Dear Mousomi
Could you please advise which country you are from? In South Africa if an employee is to attend a court hearing the employee is to give them leave...
Another thing to keep in mind is the interpersonal relationship between the organisation and the employee. Is the employee a great asset to the company? Providing support during difficult personal trials can be a huge motivator for employees.
Thanks
