A.Dear client,

Gather evidence: Collect any evidence that suggests the will has been fabricated or altered. This may include the original version of the will, any drafts or previous versions, witness testimonies, expert opinions, or any other relevant documents that support your claim.

Consult with a lawyer: Seek legal advice from a lawyer who specializes in estate litigation and probate matters. They will be able to assess the evidence you have and guide you on the best course of action to challenge the will.

File a legal challenge: Your lawyer can help you initiate legal proceedings to challenge the authenticity or validity of the will. This typically involves filing a petition or application with the appropriate court, outlining the grounds for contesting the will and providing the supporting evidence.

Present evidence in court: Prepare and present the gathered evidence to the court to demonstrate the fabrication or alteration of the will. This may involve witness testimonies, expert reports, forensic analysis, or any other relevant evidence that supports your claim.

Cross-examine witnesses: Your lawyer may have the opportunity to cross-examine the witnesses involved in the execution or alteration of the will. This can help expose inconsistencies or discrepancies in their testimonies.

Seek expert opinions: Depending on the circumstances, it may be necessary to seek expert opinions, such as forensic document examiners or handwriting experts, to analyze the will and provide their professional assessment regarding its authenticity or alterations.

Follow the court process: Cooperate with your lawyer and follow the court process diligently. Adhere to all the legal procedures and deadlines specified by the court.

Section 463 and Section 464 of the Indian Penal Code defines forgery as the making of a false document in order that it may be used as genuine. The offence of forgery is the making of a false document with the criminal intention to cause damage to any person. Only those acts of forgery, which are accompanied by the elements of deception and injury, can be said to be covered by the definition of forgery under Sections 463 and 464 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. Forgery is a criminal offense and punishable u/s.465 of IPC. Reach out to an Advocate experienced in criminal cases for proper guidance and steps.
