Will, probate vs other alternative

In view of huge spend due to lawyers ignorance or  misguiding in taking probate route in lieu of Gift Deed, I do not want to put 2 daughter's and spouse into any problem. Family is well knit. Can we go for HUF or other complexity free route. 

At the same time, no trouble during life time.

Parental home and own flat 

Do not want any division like many. Never gave bad tuition to family.

The probate of Will is not mandatory in India except in three cities viz., Bombay, Calcutta and Madras. 

If the Will is properly written beqaueathing the properties to each beneficiary  specifying their respctive shares in it, then what is the prolem to enforce the same.

You are saying it is a gift deed.  Is it a gift deed or a Will?

Will is best option for you.

After three years proceeding of advt, docs in Howrah Court, when final Hearing came in Sep 24, the last witness to will passed away. Rs.75000 was taken by advocate in 3 years. Finally, sister gifted it. Now after withdrawal of probate case, not getting back death certificate of parents, will etc.  Advocate says once will goes to DM's Treasury,  it is not possible to get it back. Court here means only fixing with ....and looting of poors money. Barring a few,  no knowledge. Sr Advocates tell all these. A chemo patient wasted money and time. Hence afraid of will. Thanks
