Bonjour Mohammad !
You have to remember that double object pronouns will never be separated.
As for their position in the sentence, the same rule applies as with single object pronouns:
- With simple tenses: Subject + (ne) + ObPronoun + Verb + (pas)
"Je ne *la lui* donne pas."
- With conjugated verb + infinitive: Subject + (ne) + Conj Verb + (pas) + ObPronoun + Infinitive
"Je ne vais pas *la lui* donner."
- With compound tenses: Subject + (ne) + ObPronoun + Auxiliary Verb (être or avoir) + (pas) + Past Participle
"Je ne *la lui* ai pas donnée."
I hope that's helpful!
À bientôt !
