DEAR SIR,
I AM SEEKING SOME PROFESSIONAL ADVICE FROM THE LEARNED ATORNEY'S ON REGISTERED WILL AND PROBATE.
MY FATHER WHO DIED FEW MONTHS BACK HAS LEFT A WILL REGISTERED IN 2008 AT SUB-REGISTRAR OFFICE. MY MOTHER HAS BEEN APPOINTED AS THE SOLE AND ONLY BENEFICERY OF HIS PROPERTIES. THE PROPERTIES ARE SELF ACQUIRED AND BOUGHT BY MY FATHER AND NOTHING IS ANCESTRAL. WE ARE 3 BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND WE ARE NOT THERE ON THE WILL.ME AND MY SISTER WELCOME OUR FATHER'S DECISION BUT MY ELDEST BROTHER IS WILLING TO CHALLENGE THE WILL IN THE COURT.HE HAS GIVEN NOTICES TO VARIOUS DEPTT LIKE MUNICIPAL CORP. AND REGISTRY OFFICE SO THAT MY MOTHER COULD NOT SELL THE PROPERTIES.HE SAYS THAT THERE IS ANOTHER WILL IN WHICH HIS NAME IS ALSO MENTIONED BUT IN FACT THERE IS NO SUCH WILL BECAUSE HE IS NOT STAYING WITH US FOR LAST 16 YEARS.
KINDLY SUGGEST WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF MY MOTHER TO WIN THE CASE IF WE GO TO THE COURTS?
ALSO , IF SHE GOES IN FOR PROBATE OF WILL HOW MUCH TIME IT WILL TAKE TO COME OVER AND WHAT WILL BE THE COURT FEE OR STAMP DUTY.
ALSO KINDLY SUGGEST WHAT WILL BE THE BEST OUTCOME TO THIS PROBLEM.
AN EARLY REPLY IN THIS REGARD WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED PLEASE.
