Quick Summary

If your legal heir certificate application, filed in 2021, is significantly delayed with your lawyer providing various excuses, you should approach the relevant SDM/Tehsildar or Revenue Department directly. Avoid relying solely on advocates, as they may not be the correct channel. It's crucial to verify the status and reasons for the delay personally with the issuing authority.

Legal heir certificate is issued by area SDM / Tehsildar, you may approach directly to find out status of your application.

You have to directly approach the concerned revenue department for obtaining the legal heirship certificate and not an advocate.

Is it a legal heir certificate or succession certificate? Ascertain particulars from the lawyer and the authority he has approached/filed application/petition for the said certificate.

Got an update from the advocate that the judge is not ready to sign the legal heir certificate stating that there is no activity done since 3 years. This is really weird.

Unconviencing and unbelievable reply, which should be verified personally.

Yes to me as well, currently I've asked another lawyer is looking into it. I think I need NOC from previous lawyer to proceed, if he doesn't agree to provide NOC the not sure what we should do?
