1) You first get registered your name on all property papers including ancestral property. You have to apply in the registrar office for land property in land records all legal heirs name.

2) Get you name on BANK and LIC policy as well by applying in the court for succession and legal heirs certificate. Get your name registered on all movable and immovable property so your mother and sister could not sale the property.

3) For further guidance do give me call via consultation call.

Sir, fir of all file a FIR against the driver for beating you.

Secondly File a for Succession cetificate on all the property of father, along with seek interim stay on disposition of amount in bank cash movable items and transfer of property.

The civil court shall grant you your rights nobody can take your share.

also the bank doesn't disburse funds to the single legal heirs consent of all is required. Just inform the bank of death of your father and block all atm cards give them the death certificate.

Also do not worry without consent of all heirs or Succession certificate no funds can be disbursed pension or any balance further even if bank do so they take indemnity bonds so same can be recovered.

Also get the records of ancestral property and apply for mutation

Hello Mr. Vivek, I am Adv. Harsh Singhal practicing in Supreme Court of India. I understand your problem. There is nothing to worry in this. You have to play very tactically. To get your share in the property is not a big problem that will be done by court but your main problem is that driver. You should register a FIR against the driver that he beat you and gave you warnings to Kill you. By this we can file a criminal case against the driver so that he won't be able interfere in your family matter. On the other hand we will also file a suit for partition. See when your father died intestate i.e. without any Will than the law says that the property will be divided into equal shares in between the existing legal heirs of the deceased. So in your case the property will be divided in three shares i.e. one of your mother, one of your sister and one is of yours.

For further details you please contact me on [deleted]

DEAR SIR,

By birth no body have no knowledge. We must either learn or borrow or hire. Hire a very good senior civil lawyer and sign vakalat and he will look after your court cases. First ask him to file a suit for partition and freeze all bank accounts. Further restrain them from alienating any property. During the course you will come to know about the law. Nothing to bother.

1. What is the reason for your own people's acting so strangely with you? Try to settle the dispute if any amicably.

2. If things can not be solved amicably, collect details of your late father's movable and immovable properties first and then file a partition suit seeking equal partition of the said properties.

3. For filiing the above partition suit, engage a local lawyer having expertise in this field.

Firstly, the property which is not anscestral, you have all right of your share in it as you said there is no will.

Secondly, in regard to the anscestral property there is no criteria of will at all, you surely have your share in it.

Thirdly, with regard to the lic amount etc, if your father didn’t mention any nominee then you would have share in these also.

Fourthly, first please get succession certificate for property plus legal heir certificate for lic etc.

Rest you can consult me through Kanoon for further assistance and for the guidance with regard to the certificates.

You cannot file a partition suit from the place of your choice.

You may have to initiate action only by visiting the place where your properties lie

You need to file a civil suit for the title and share in property as the father expired without a will.

In the case you need not to make the driver as party but in case he has manhandled you file a police complaint on him under 323 and 506 of IPC.

Also at the same time you may file a mandamus writ petition in the High Court Lucknow for the orders in this regard to give you access to the house and property.

An advocate from Lucknow may handle the cases in Gorakhpur as well.
