Q: How to deal with probate case

My grandfather died in sept, 2009. He had two properties. He left behind his wife(my grandmother), 2 daughters and 1 son. The son is independent and my mother is a dependent daughter of my late grandfather. My grandmother mutated one of the property in 2014 in her name after both the daughters gave NOC, but the son didn't give. Now in 2017, the son has produced some kind of will of my late grandfather which is in his favour and has filled a probate case. Now my questions are: 1. We know the son might have forced our grandfather with that will as he has lied in the application he has given and there are mistakes in the will. How can we prove it? 2. What are the different ways to contest a will? 3. As my grandmother has already mutated one of the properties in her name, will the Will affect her mutation? Will she still be considered as an owner after probate? 3. How long it will take for the case to settle? 4. Will the probate case lead to further problems in our properties?

Advocate Supratim Deb Purkayastha answered
Mutation doesn't confer any title. You need to contest the probate case filing written statement. On filing of the written statement the case will be converted into a testamentary suit. You Shall have to prove your allegations. Probate case takes time.You shall have to hire a good lawyer for further information and consultation .

Q: Can ancestral property be sold of w/o consent of family members

My Father had willed his property to my mother's name and after his death the property transferred to my mother's name after given consent (noc) by all four sisters and two brothers now my mother sold the property to my elder sister without informing any of us. Is it legal. We are Hindu by religion.

Advocate Supratim Deb Purkayastha answered
Will is required to be probated to have it effective. Without probate of the will no legal right acrues over the property by virtue of the of the will. But once will is probated the beneficiary becomes the exclusive owner of the property and has the right to transfer the property to any one.
