My maintenance case is pending in court. My in-laws have all passed away, leaving only my husband and his younger sister living in their family home with her children. They forced me out five years ago, and I’ve been living separately with our children ever since. I’m considering divorce. 1. Will my children have any claim to their grandparents’ property, even if we get divorced? 2. Can my husband refuse to provide for our children, claiming disability (he had TB but is now working)?

Your children may have a claim to their grandparents’ property depending on the nature of their ownership and applicable inheritance laws. However, this would be subject to the court’s decision. Regarding maintenance, your husband cannot refuse to provide for your children based on a past disability, especially if he is now working. The court will determine the amount of maintenance based on his financial capabilities.

I purchased a property in Delhi five years ago and registered it in my name. The seller didn’t inform me about a pending court case against the property.

How can I proceed with the sale while the legal issues are still pending in the Delhi High Court?

As a single mother, I’ve been living with my parents for the past 8 years after my divorce. My father is retired, and I work to provide for my daughter and contribute to our household expenses. Unfortunately, there are frequent disagreements at home, and my father often threatens to sell the property, leaving me with nowhere to go. I even pay him rent, which I have receipts for. Is there any legal protection in India that allows me to secure my right to stay in this property?

My husband and I own our house, but due to family circumstances, he sold it in November with a 6-month agreement. The buyer paid a down payment of 30 lakhs, but now he wants to register the property in his name after paying only half the amount. He claims he’ll get a loan for the rest and needs another two months. We’re hesitant as we’ve already used the advance payment to settle our debts and need to find a new place to live. What should we do?

My father and his brother inherited a house in Thane from our grandfather, built around 25 years ago. We lived there for a few years before moving out due to family disagreements in 1993. Now, as the only son of my father, and with my cousin being the only son of my uncle, we want to know if we can claim a share of the house. We don’t have any property papers, but I have documents like my ration card, driving license, and passport showing that address. Can we legally claim our share of this property, and how do we go about resolving this issue? I’ve been living on rent for over two decades now, and I’m eager to find a solution.

Having lived in a house for over 40 years, with a small garden space, can I purchase the property at a lower price than the current market value?

Next Article I helped a friend’s friend prepare for an IT job, including resume writing and coaching. I charged a reasonable fee of ₹30,000, working diligently to ensure he was ready. Sadly, he lacked focus during the course and struggled to keep up. After getting the job, he quit after just two days, took the company laptop home, and sent it back with a letter stating he wouldn’t continue. He’s now blaming me for the “fake” company and demanding his money back. He’s threatening to file a false complaint against me and my friend unless I pay up, using my role in the interview as leverage. There’s no proof of payment, but he’s recording everything as blackmail.
