Hello,
- As per Section 12 of the Partnership Act, in the event of the death of a partner, his heirs or legal representatives or their duly authorized agents shall have a right of access to and to inspect and copy any of the books of the firm.
- Further, as per Section 35 of the Act, where under a contract between the partners the firm is not dissolved by the death of a partner, the estate of a deceased partner is not liable for any act of the firm done after his death.
- Further under section 42, when one partner dies then Partnership can be dissolved.
- Further, after ascertaining the amount due to the deceased partner, the balance in his capital account should be transferred to an account opened in the name of his executors
- Hence you can reply the said legal notice accordingly with the help of any lawyer.
1. The legal documents are required to be perused before parting advices in this regard.
2. Your deceased father's share in the said partnership firm can be sold to other partners in case you do not want to continue with the said Firm as Partner being legal heir of your deceased father.
You can contact any advocate of this forum with whose credential you may be satisfied or you may contact an advocate of your choice outside this forum too for getting the relevant papers/documents reviewed or scrutinized before you can put your signatures accepting the terms of the firm towards settlement of your deceased father's claim amount in the partnership firm..
