will

(Querist) 26 April 2011 This query is : Resolved 
Does the surviving widow is entitled to make a will of property left by her husband after his death?
R.Ramachandran (Expert) 26 April 2011
First she should get legal heir certificate and get the property mutated in her name. Thereafter she can make a WILL.
If there are more than one legal heirs of the deceased person, then the Widow will get only her share and she can make a WILL only in respect of her share.
adv. rajeev ( rajoo ) (Expert) 26 April 2011
She can make a will of her share only, she cannot make entire property of the deceased husband, because other legal heirs of the deceased are also entittle for the equal share.
Sarvesh Kumar Sharma Advocate (Expert) 26 April 2011
agree with mr. rajeev @ rajoo!
Arvind Singh Chauhan (Expert) 26 April 2011
I do agree with Rajeev Sir.
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 26 April 2011
If only widow is survived as legal heir then she is within her legal right to make will thereto as per her free will and whims.
M/s. Y-not legal services (Expert) 27 April 2011
Yes.. There she only the legal heir to the deceased husband mean she can do what ever.. If she is one of the legal heir mean she has entitled to make will respect of her share only..
V.Mahadevan (Expert) 27 April 2011
There should be no impediment to the making of a WILL of the said property by surviving widow - ofcourse, limited only to her share of the property.
