I’m his daughter, and I want to fight for my rights. I need financial stability for my marriage and to ensure my mother’s well-being.

You can approach the Indian courts to seek maintenance from your father. Since you reside in India and he is an NRI, you can file a maintenance application under the Indian Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007. You can also seek legal aid from a lawyer specializing in family law to ensure you don’t face excessive legal fees.

My husband’s family received a significant amount of money as a wedding gift, deposited into an account jointly held by my husband and his father. Now, during a legal dispute, my lawyer requested bank statements and PAN card details for this account from the past year. However, my husband is refusing to provide them, claiming his father has disowned him from the family business. This seems untrue as he still has access to the ATM and knows his PAN card number.

Growing up, I lived with my maternal aunt and uncle, they were my only family. Now they’re asking me to leave. What can I do?

My father passed away in August 2000, leaving behind around 5 acres of land in Madhya Pradesh. He had two sons, my brother and I, and one daughter (myself). Unfortunately, my brother and his wife also passed away in January 2000, leaving behind three children. My elder brother claims that their daughters have no right to the land. Is this true? My name was included in the land records at the time of transfer. Can he prevent me from claiming my share of the property? I need guidance on this matter.

My grandfather inherited land and a house from his ancestors. After a family split, he received a portion of each. He has two sons, my father and my uncle. My mother, who had two sons, and my aunt, who had one son and three daughters, are no longer with us. My father and uncle remarried and had more children. After my father’s remarriage, he and my uncle began to neglect my brother and me. We lived with my grandfather for 15 years, but they have now accused us of taking all the property from him. This is untrue, as they each built homes for their second wives. Now they’re demanding a property division and my grandfather fears we’ll be left homeless. We’re struggling financially and need legal advice on our rights and options.

My 498A case was dismissed by the High Court in December 2012. My brother’s family didn’t challenge this in the Supreme Court. But, in October 2013, they filed a defamation case. Now, my sister-in-law has asked the same High Court to reconsider their decision. I’m worried because: 1. Can the High Court hear this again? 2. Can I go to the Supreme Court? 3. I received a notice. How can I stop them from causing further stress to my family with this unnecessary application?

Should I pursue a re-investigation and legal process to include these two people and reinstate the original charges?
