You can file a civil suit for partition of the ancestral property in the appropriate court in Mahabubnagar, Telangana. You can claim your share based on your father’s inheritance, as you are a legal heir. A lawyer can advise on the specific legal steps and documentation required.

I bought a house in 2014 from a seller, paid the full price, registered it in my name, and even cleared all the municipal taxes. I took a bank loan to finance the purchase and have been diligently paying the monthly installments. Despite all this, I’m still living in a rented house because the previous owner, who turns out to have a criminal past, now wants more money for the property. What can I do? Please advise.

Imagine two brothers locked in a legal battle over property in the Delhi High Court. One brother feels unfairly treated by a court decision and appeals to a larger bench. This bench, in an attempt to resolve the matter amicably, asks both brothers to reach a compromise. What happens if the brothers fail to agree and file a settlement within the given timeframe? Does it make a difference if the larger bench had already recorded their consent to settle?

My family and I have a verbal agreement to divide our property. We want to make it official and legally binding. How can we do this?

Namaste! I own a corner plot house in our society, which is a freehold property. I’m planning to convert it into a commercial space. The front of my house borders a 7.5-meter road within the society, and the back connects to a 7.5-9 meter road owned by the apartments behind. This road ultimately connects to a 24-meter main road. I have two questions: 1. What role does our society association (it’s not a registered cooperative society) play in granting an NOC for converting my residential property to commercial? 2. Can the society object to this conversion even if I haven’t made any changes to the property and it was originally allotted as a residential plot by the builder? Your insights would be greatly appreciated! 🙏

My grandfather, a devout Muslim, passed away in 1997 without leaving a will. He had two sons and a daughter. My father, the elder son, has been renting a place since then without any property division. My grandmother said the property would be divided between her two sons after her passing. My aunt received her share when she got married in 1980. Now, my grandmother is allowing my uncle to live in the property without informing my father. How can we proceed with dividing the property?

Previous Article My land in a village has a front facing the rural road. The government recently rebuilt this road, making it straight, and now my land doesn’t touch the road anymore. The new road was built on the other side of my neighbor’s land, and he’s claiming the land between the old road and the new one, which is around 15,000 square feet. My property value has dropped significantly. Is there any legal recourse or remedy for this situation?
