The POA should be properly executed and registered in India to be legally valid for land transactions.

They had five sons and four daughters, all of whom are married and have two children each. Since they didn’t leave a will, how can we transfer the land ownership to their children and how should the land be divided fairly among the sons and daughters? My wife and son declared me dead while I was away and sold our property. My name is now marked as “Late” in the mutation records. My brother, who is also my co-heir, seems to be part of this scheme. How can I get the sale deeds cancelled, my name corrected in the records, and reclaim my rightful share of the property? My father passed away 20 years ago, leaving two 1 BHK flats in our society registered in his name. I have two sisters. Can they legally gift me these flats? Do I need to register the transfer at the registrar’s office? My father gifted me our ancestral home in India. My uncle, who owned the property next door, sold it to a neighbour 25 years ago. We’ve always shared a common wall peacefully. Now, after I started renovating my house, the new owner claims his property is 2 feet smaller than what’s on paper. He refused to show me his documents and threatened legal action. I had to build my wall 3/4 foot away from the shared boundary. We even made a formal agreement on stamp paper. But now he’s denying the agreement and says I can’t build a wall at all. What legal options do I have to protect my property rights? My grandfather gifted his ancestral property to my father, who is now 72 years old. He’s recently started talking about giving the property to someone outside the family. What rights do my mother, my brother, and my nephew have to prevent this and keep the property within our family?

It’s a cultural tradition, and I love his children as my own. He’s been a wonderful husband and father for 20 years. He’s been incredibly supportive of me and even feels like a father to my daughter. He’s 45, and I’m 25. I’m a US citizen, but I’m unsure if the consulate will approve our marriage. While age gaps are common in our culture, I’m concerned about its impact on the paperwork process. Next Article My husband and I have been married for two years, and I’ve been living with my parents in Hyderabad. Unfortunately, things haven’t been good. I’ve been facing a lot of emotional and physical abuse, and I’ve had to leave him due to the violence. He recently sent me a divorce notice with false accusations. I used to work before marriage but have been unable to since. We also have a five-month-old baby. Could I use a lawyer in Bangalore to respond to the divorce notice, or should I use a lawyer in Hyderabad? Also, considering my husband earns more than 30 lakhs per year, can I request alimony?
