As per the Hindu Succession Act 1956 and the recent ruling of SC all legal heirs under class 1 classification are entitled to equal share in the property of the ancestor or the father. In your case the property will be devolve upon all 5 heirs including the mother. However the mother can transfer her share by gift deed or by Will after her demise. If 3 brothers refuses to give share in the property then file a partition suit. For filing partition suit contact me.
