1. Yes, even if the Will is not registered it has force of law. If the Will is not put to probate earlier it can be done now also. The court will accept this even after 7 years even if it is not registered. Contact a local advocate who has his office in your locality.

Your wife can file partition suit, if the existence or details of will are not made available. If the will exist, it is valid even if it is not registered.

will need not be registered . it would be valid provided signed by deceased in presence of 2 attesting witnesses . if your wife is not given copy of will she can file partition suit

First issue legal notice through an advocate demanding share in the property. Based on the reply ur advocate will decide further action.
Advocate. Arunagiri (Expert) 14 August 2014
Your wife is having share. Let her claim her share by sending the notice. If needed partition suit can be filed.

apparently, there is some confusion. you mention of a partition deed as well a will. perhaps, a restatement of facts would enable the experts to provide the proper suggestion.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 19 August 2014
Your contents are that your wife's grandfather has duly partitioned his property among his children very long ago and to evidence the same, he has executed an unregistered partition deed on a Rs. 100/- NJS paper. I presume that the partition deed has been acted upon and all the share holders are in possession and enjoyment of their respective shares individually. Therefore, your wife's father, who too was a share holder, acquired his share and was in possession and enjoyment of the same as an absolute owner till his intestate death. Now, where is the question of a Will purported to have been executed by your wife's grandfather once the above partition was effected?, it is just cheating game plan by your wife's mother and brothers. ask her file a partition suit claiming her legitimate share out of the share of property that was allotted to her father.
