My father is the eldest of six brothers, and we inherited farmland from our grandfather. He moved to Pune for work and bought a small plot where we built a three-story house with a loan I took. The house is registered in my father’s name. After a decade, we built a house in our village, and since then, my uncles have refused to share the farmland with my father. They claim he doesn’t need it because I have a good job and earn well. They also demand a share of our house in Pune. We are feeling threatened by their actions. We are a Hindu-Maratha family. What legal options do we have?

Your father has a legal right to his share of the ancestral land, regardless of your income or the house in Pune. Your uncles’ claim on your Pune house is baseless. You can approach the court for partition of the ancestral land and a restraining order against your uncles’ threats.

My grandmother owned land in 1980. After she passed, our neighbours tricked my father, who is not well-versed in legal matters, into signing some papers claiming a survey number change. They then used these papers to get the land registered in their name. They sold the land in 2014 to someone else. We recently found our grandmother’s original land documents while moving. Can we take any action against the neighbours? Should we file a complaint?

My husband’s name is on the nomination for our flat, which belongs to his father. He refused to put the property in our son’s name. What does nomination mean? If his father wills the house to someone else, what happens to us? We’ve lived here for 12 years, do we have any rights to the property?

I’m trying to find the survey number of a house my father sold in 2004. He sold it under a power of attorney but didn’t register it in his name. He also misled the buyer about having a daughter, which was never acknowledged during the sale. I haven’t spoken to him in 8 years and he’s lost all his documents, including the survey number. Can you guide me on how to get this information?

My father received a share of ancestral land in Kerala after a division among his siblings. We lived in Ahmedabad, and the land was registered in his name while everyone was getting along. The original registration papers remained with my father’s siblings in Kerala. Unfortunately, things turned sour within the family. Now my father has passed away, and his siblings are holding onto the land documents, refusing to return them. I want to get those papers back and give them to my mother. What can I do in this situation? Can my uncles and aunts claim or sell my father’s land without our knowledge or permission?
