I have received two properties in a single plot from my mother (A) and her sister (B) through a settlement deed in 2019. They received the property through a partition deed in 2008 after the death of their sister (C) in 2006. C was divorced in 2000 and had no kids. Their parents had too passed away in 2002 and 2007 which made A & B the only legal heirs to C and thus the property owned by C was transferred to A & B in 2008. Since my prior deed was done 12 years back, no one remembers whether the legal heir certificate was obtained during that time or not. Now when I am trying to apply for a home loan, the bank is insisting on getting a legal heir certificate which I believe will take a lot of time. I would like to know whether there is any workaround for this problem. We do not have the divorce documents at our procession which were received 20 years back. So I believe applying for a legal heir certificate might not be possible.

We r three children. Two elder brothers, n i am younger daughter, I am married have two children. Partition had to be done in my mother's land. Land has a banglow and land of 50 cent. I want to know how the sharing has to be done. They are not willing to give me land. Instead they want to give only little amount of money. At present non of them is staying there. Bungalow is locked, they are not allowing me to stay in vacations not even for one day. Now my brother's have called me for partition of land. They were threatened me to sign on some paper, but I refused. Since I don't know the real bagam procedure they can misuse my signature... So pls advice me, what to do... Is there any signed papers we have to submit in panchayat earlier.

While the brother (45 years) was on the death bed from Cancer, my wife has gifted (with NO condition) her share of the inheritance property (no will left by father) to her dying brother hoping that he will recover by the happiness of receiving the property. However, he passed away within two months. Now the wife of the deceased brother is trying to sell the property. My wife has so much emotional attachment to the property because her father and grandparents spent a lifetime building such legacy and ancestral properties. The wife of the deceased brother hasn’t registered the property in her name yet. Is there legal action my wife can take to take the property back. Can she execute any actions without the knowledge of the wife of the deceased. All my wife wants is to protect the family properties beyond this generation. Please let me know what are the actions, how, and associated legal cost (stamp paper etc) of such actions. Thank you in advance for your kind guidance.
