Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies inheritance rights when a father wills self-acquired property solely to his daughter, despite a deceased son's wife making claims. The consensus is that the daughter's will is likely valid, and the brother's wife cannot claim property specifically bequeathed to the sister. Regarding the deceased brother's assets, including insurance, the mother is a legal heir alongside the brother's wife and child, and the nominee status of the wife doesn't negate the mother's rights. An amicable settlement is suggested to resolve potential disputes.

She has to share the property with her mother-in-law who has also the right to it. As your late father made a will in favour of his daughter and no one has right in it.

Nominee need not be the legal heir and only custodian to share among legal heirs. But, your brothers property including insurance claim if nominated to your brother's wife no claim arise but she need to take care of your mother. Self earned property if gifted to you no other can claim.

Hello,

Your brother's wife cannot claim the property 'will' by your father. For claiming she has to approach civil court and challenge will. For immovable property of your brother, insurance your mother is also one of the legal heir. So explain this to your brother's wife so that she will not make unnecessary claims.
