icon Electricity Bill Problem

I have a two-bedroom flat which is on rent. This tenant is living there for the last 15 years. Every year 11 monthly rent contract is signed. We enjoy good relations between us. Today he informed m


A. Hi,
The amount you mentioned above is a big amount and it is difficult to believe that the said amount is of one-month electricity use. Please verify it once more and if it is needed, move legally. However, the tenant is supposed to pay the electricity bill as far as he stays in your flat unless it is otherwise expressly mentioned in the agreement deed.

icon Self acquired property

Can my elder brother claim my self acquired property(plot) which I purchased after my marriage with my own money? when partition of my father's property was happening then my brother brought a point


A. Dear Client,

As its sole owner, you have an exclusive right over your property, your ownership of the property remains constant. A brother can only claim the share in the ancestral property, as a coparcener and not over your self-acquired property.

Thank you!

icon Ancestoral property gifted

My grandfather has four sons including my father. From my fathers share of ancestoral property, my grandfather gifted some area to my sister, who has cancer and has few years to live. What happens to


A. Dear Client,

A father (current owner of the ancestral property) and his son have equal ownership rights over the property. The distribution of property should happen in such a way that each share gets further divided into successive generations. If an ancestral property is willed, to your sister it will become self-acquired property. If the ancestral property is divided into the owners of the property as per the share. Then the property will lose the title of ancestral property.

Thank you!

A. Dear Client,

You may approach an extra-judicial divorce by mutual consent which gives you two options: One is the “Khula” divorce and the other is “Mubarat” divorce form. In both these ways, the wife agrees to let go of her dower or some part of any other property.

A. Hi,
1) Yes, you are allowed to travel to the USA during this phase. However, it is advisable to not travel since you may be requested to appear during these court proceedings.
2)An H4 upon divorce from the H1 is no longer in status. F-1 does not usually allow CPT the first 6 months or year. H4 can go to school to start. Consult with an immigration attorney.

A. Dear Client,

After the 2005 Amendment of the Hindu Succession Act, females are now considered coparceners in ancestral property. It must be determined whether the property in your father's possession is ancestral or not. Please note that only the property that has remained unpartitioned through male lineage for the last four generations is considered ancestral. If the property is ancestral, it cannot be sold without the coparceners written approval. Please discuss the following details with you ...ReadMore
