You are male or female.? 1. If you are female, your brother in law can not pressurize you to leave the sharehousehold. You have right under DV act. 2. In any case if its family property, you have equal rights, you can send him legal notice stating your rights and your decission of not leaving this property.

Hi, Going by the limited information provided by you, it is essential to send them a legal notice asking him to stop threatening you and that you legal action will be initiated against them. The legal action may be criminal and civil depending upon what you want from him. For better understanding of the matter and advising properly, it is advised to have a meeting virtually/ physically.
