My dad has two sons, and I’m the elder one. After my marriage, he started causing trouble for my wife and me. He took away all the gold jewelry my wife had and said he wouldn’t give us anything. If I report this to the authorities, would my dad’s property be seized? Could I at least get back the value of the gold he took?

I’m a 24-year-old Gujarati girl. My family arranged my engagement with someone from our community last year. This year, I met a wonderful guy and we’ve fallen in love. I told my family I want to marry him, but they’re using emotional pressure to force me into the arranged marriage. It’s been incredibly stressful. I’m considering going to the police but am unsure how they can help me. I don’t want to marry right now; I want to focus on my career. My family has always stopped me from working. Can you tell me how to find legal assistance?

My father recently passed away, and we have a single apartment in his name. My mother and I, along with my three unmarried sisters, live there. I’m looking for the best way to transfer the ownership of the flat into my name to ensure my mother and my future are secure. My married sisters can be quite demanding, so I want to make sure the transfer happens smoothly, without any complications. Could you please advise me on the legal process and procedures involved in selling or transferring the property?

My husband abandoned me and our two children, a boy (now 17) and a girl (now 16), back in 2006. He filed for divorce and left me with a temporary job paying a meager 1700 rupees. I only learned about the divorce case through a newspaper ad in 2008 and immediately filed for maintenance. My current income is less than 17,000 rupees, while his salary is reportedly 60,000 or more. The divorce and maintenance cases were merged, and he has since filed for divorce again. We’ve been married for 21 years. He’s a government employee. I’m worried about the future of my children and me. What kind of maintenance can I expect for us? If I decide to go through with the divorce, what kind of financial settlement and property division can I anticipate? Isn’t it unfair that the case has dragged on for 8 years (2008-2016)? Is there anything else I can do? With my current earnings, I have no financial security for my children or myself.

My grandmother owns a piece of land with a cold storage built on it. My uncles are trying to take over the entire property by claiming my grandmother transferred it to their new company. They’ve forged documents and obtained a court order stopping anyone from buying the land. For two years now, they’ve been running the cold storage without a license. How can I legally regain control of my grandmother’s land?

Priya and Raj (names changed) had a traditional Hindu wedding in December 2001. Raj was later transferred to Sydney for work. Their marriage faced challenges, with Priya experiencing harassment and emotional distress. Despite these difficulties, they welcomed their son in March 2016. Raj eventually sent Priya back to India, promising to bring their child and join her soon. However, he became unreachable, refusing communication. Priya’s parents travelled to Sydney to support her, only to find that Raj had disappeared, leaving them facing financial hardship and emotional turmoil. Can Priya’s parents seek legal action to protect her interests without jeopardizing Raj’s access to their son?

My wife gave birth to our baby 7 months ago, and now she’s refusing to come home. She filed a dowry harassment complaint, but couldn’t provide any evidence at the police station. She then sent legal notices to me and the police, and now another notice for a compromise. She claims she needs to work, but she has a history of blood clots in her brain and leg after delivery. Her parents are interfering in our lives, and they’ve influenced her against me. We both genuinely love and respect each other, but she can’t stand up to her parents. I’m in a desperate situation and need help.

My brother got married almost two decades ago, but they never formally registered it. He has a daughter, but unfortunately, things happened without my sister-in-law’s consent due to some unavoidable circumstances. We’ve been close since we were kids, and have been in love for the past decade. I want to marry her legally and avoid any legal complications. I’m prepared to face family issues, but I need to ensure there’s no legal trouble. What advice can you give me?

We wanted to get married under the Special Marriage Act because we belong to different religions (Hindu and Muslim). The registrar asked us many questions, even wanting our parents’ phone numbers. After much struggle, he finally processed our application in front of the SDM. But the SDM raised unnecessary issues, demanding witnesses from our families, which isn’t required by law and isn’t possible for us. She rejected our application. We raised our concerns with the DM, who instructed the SDM to process our request and clarify her doubts. However, when we returned, her office was closed, and she refused to process our application. This led to a heated discussion, and we’re worried she might create more problems. What can we do to get our marriage processed smoothly?

My mother-in-law has been constantly harassing me over the phone and in person, making my life unbearable. This has caused me severe mental distress for the past eight years. Can I file a police complaint against her for this harassment? I’m worried about the consequences for her if I do. I’m Hindu and have been seeking medical help for the mental abuse I’ve endured.

I’m Rajesh Srivastava, and my wife and I have been married for over 8 years. We haven’t been able to have a child due to complications with my wife’s health, including filariasis, tuberculosis, and blocked fallopian tubes. We’ve been seeking medical treatment for the past 5 years, including surgery, but haven’t been successful. Sadly, my wife’s behavior has also been challenging, and she’s been living with her family for the past 18 months. Given this situation, I have a few legal questions:1. I’m a contractual employee in the health department. Can my wife legally demand expenses for staying at her parents’ house?2. Can my wife legally accuse me of dowry harassment?3. Considering our inability to have children and her health issues, can I legally seek a divorce?

I’ve been living with my in-laws for the past four months. They’re saying they’ll only keep me if I give them my salary. My husband doesn’t work and they claim I’ll get nothing even if I file for divorce because all the property is in my father-in-law’s name. I’m disabled, so is there any chance my daughter and I have a share in the property? What should I do?

My in-laws have been unkind to me, forcing us out of their home after just a year of marriage. We have two young children, aged 4 and 3, who now live with my husband’s younger brother. My question is: Do our children have any legal claim to the ancestral property, even though they aren’t living there? We’ve been married for eight years now.
