Agricultural land and government provided house
8 months ago
Dear sir,I am the only daughter to my parents.My parents got married 30 years ago and separated for 1year after marriage.My father married again without giving divorce and maintenance to my mother and to me. My father had Agricultural land and house provided by government.He died recently.We don't have any documents regarding agricultural land and government provided house.All documents are with second wife (illegally married without divorce 30 years ago).
What is the process to get that agricultural land and government provided house as they are not giving any documents to us and they are telling we won't give anything to me or to my mother?what action should we take against them?
A.Dear Client,
Here are some steps to consider:
Consult with an Attorney:
Start by consulting with a family law attorney who can assess your situation, provide legal advice, and guide you through the process.
Gather Evidence:
Collect any evidence you have related to your father's assets, such as photographs, witnesses, or any other documents that may indicate his ownership of the agricultural land and government-provided house.
Search for Legal Records:
Work with your attorney to conduct a search for legal records related to the agricultural land and government-provided house. These records may be available at local government offices or land registration authorities. Your attorney can help you understand the legal status of these properties.
Determine Ownership:
Your attorney can help you establish your legal claim to the properties based on your rights as the daughter of your father. In some jurisdictions, daughters have legal inheritance rights, even if there was a second marriage involved.
Legal Action:
If your father's second wife is unlawfully withholding property documents or assets that rightfully belong to you, your attorney can initiate legal action, such as filing a civil suit or a case of inheritance or property rights, to recover those assets.
Mediation and Negotiation:
Depending on the circumstances and local laws, you may explore mediation or negotiation with the second wife to reach a settlement. Your attorney can facilitate these discussions.
Registering a Caveat:
Your attorney may advise you to register a caveat (a formal notice) at the relevant land or property registration office. This will notify authorities that you have a legal interest in the property and should be informed of any transactions or disputes related to it.
Legal Notice:
Your attorney can send a legal notice to the second wife, demanding the release of documents and assets. This notice can also serve as an initial step in resolving the dispute amicably.
Court Proceedings:
If negotiations fail, your attorney may file a case in the appropriate court to seek legal remedies and enforce your rights to the agricultural land and government-provided house.
Inheritance Rights:
Depending on the inheritance laws in your jurisdiction, it's important to understand your rights as the daughter of your father and how they apply to his assets.
Thank you.
