Daughter

Hi,

My wife's widower grandfather had a piece of land. After his death, the land was claimed by his only child (i.e. my father-in-law).

My father-in-law has two children, a son (i.e. my brother-in-law) and a daughter (i.e. my wife).

My brother-in-law is now pressurizing him to transfer all the land to his name.

My query is, can my father-in-law transfer all the land (ansestral property) to his son's name without his daughter's consent?

Can his daughter claim portion of the land from her father while he is still alive (as its an ansestral property)? If yes then how much portion she can claim? Following are the members

1. father-in-law

2. mother-in-law

3. brother-in-law

4. his wife

5. his kid

6. my wife

7. myself

8. my kid

In this case how much portion can she claim?

Thanks in advance

Mahesh

Your father-in-law, brother-in-law, and your wife are only legal heirs of her grandfather.

Thank you Sir for your reply.

So it means, she is owner of the 1/3 of the land. But can she claim it while her father is still alive? What is the precedure for claim? Does she need to go to court to claim the land or send the notice to her father?

 

Thanks

How did your father-in-law inherit the property?
