What is the procedure of obtaining legal heir certificate
31-Aug-2023 (In Property Law)
My father died without making will and the legal heirs are his wife, 2 sons and 1 daughter. He has flat in his name at navi Mumbai of which he has submitted nomination to housing society but it is not signed by him. so our local lawyer told that we have to take legal heirship certificate. Now my questions are: (1) Whether we have to take legal heirship certificate to take charge of the flat? (2) How much is cost for taking legal heriship certificate?

Since nomination is not signed by your father society can not make any one of you as a member. The way of legally ascertaining heirs of any person is by obtaining Heirship certificate. So society may ask for it to avoid any dispute. Cost of obtaining Heirship certificate will be advocate's professional fees, miscellaneous expenses and court fee as per law.

Yes your local lawyer is correct. In order to ascertain the legal heirs of the deceased and society to transfer the immovable property in the name of the legal heirs you will have to file for succession certificate. Your local lawyer should be able to help you in under Rs 25000 unless there are complications you are good to go.
