This query is : Resolved
my father in law made a will on plain paper with due witnesses and also doctor's certificate in 1989.the will clearly specifies the immovable property belongs to his wife till her death and after that for his only son.however it does not cover any of the above property rights to the two daughters. this property was purchased by my father in law from his own savings (not ancestrol property).now father in law is no more but my mother in law is alive and she had negotiated for demolition and construction of commercial cum residential apartments in the said property. please let me whether we two daugters have right over the property and if so how to go about it.

was probate of will obtained? will has to be judicially proved in court of law to be ffective .
in thee event no probate has been obtained then the daughters will have share in father property .
