Reading: My father remarried twice after my mother passed away. I’m his son from his first marriage and got married last year. We have a shop and other income sources, but the property is registered in my mother’s name. Despite being her son, I’m denied any share and even entry to the house. There are constant arguments. Can I legally claim my rightful share in the property?

Yes, you can legally claim your share in the property as the son of the deceased owner. Under the Indian Succession Act, a son is entitled to a share in the property inherited from his mother. You can approach the court for a partition suit to claim your rightful share and resolve the ongoing disputes.
