My father passed away, leaving behind a single-room apartment for us four brothers. The society transferred it to our mother’s name. Sadly, my two younger brothers passed away, and then my mother passed away last September. As the second son, I live separately after my marriage. Now, my elder brother is trying to claim the entire property. He has my aunt’s support, who lives there. While she verbally confirmed that I’m included in the nominee list, she refuses to provide any written proof. Whenever I bring this up, she either ignores me or gets upset. What legal options do I have if they refuse to acknowledge my share in the property?
Best Answer
You can file a partition suit in the civil court to establish your right to a share in the property. You can seek legal counsel to obtain a court order for access to the property documents and to establish your claim based on inheritance laws and the nominee list. Your aunt’s verbal confirmation can be presented as evidence in court, but a written proof would strengthen your case.
