icon Property issue -My father gave us a land

My father gave us a land (not registered) asking us to build a house and keep it yourself. We built a house and staying there for the past 14 years. Now they are asking back the land saying we didn't


A. Dear Client
When someone wants to claim ownership of land that's not theirs, it is called Adverse Possession. To claim Adverse Possession you would need to make an application to the Land Registry. The Land Registry have a strict set of criteria you must meet before you can claim land you do not own. Without registration, a buyer has no legal right over the property.

Hello, I would like to know power and responsibilities an ad hoc committee has in residential apartments in Goa. Unfortunately, most members in our wing (consists of 40 members) do not live here (ar


A. Dear Client
The power of an ad hoc committee is also variable. A committee may have the ability to set regulations, develop a framework for enforcement, and take other concrete steps. In other cases, it can only make recommendations to a larger committee or organization.
However, if you feel that any kind of abusive language has been used towards you or any kind of harassment or injustice caused to you, you may proceed to the police station or court and file a complaint against them.
Thanks

icon Grama Natham -with patta

I have a land under grama natham with patta. Can I construct a house without a lawyer?


A. Dear Client
Purchasing a Grama Natham land can always be a risky investment although legally one can build a house on such a land while enjoying the benefits of lower initial cost. Grama Natham land may be less liquid when compared to Patta lands, as there are fewer buyers for such properties. You must approach a lawyer for better understanding.
Thanks
