This query is : Resolved
I was denied higher education and jobs abroad by my dad and insisted me to help him in his trade. He orally assured me several times, that I will inherit all his self earned movables and immovables, if I help him in his trade and bail out my sisters. The value of land was negligible at that time,when I joined him in his trade. Now all my sisters are married since a decade and I am still single and running 40 now. I haven’t drawn anything to lead my life,since I joined him. But I was given a life cover for Rs1.25 Lakhs from the beginning and he is still nominee for it. He is now acting against his own words given to me earlier. I too have to settle in my own life . Is there any legal remedy? Please help me.

Dear Mr. K. V. Kamath,
All movables and immovable properties are self acquired properties of your father so your father has right enjoy, convey to others.
You can claim only whatever you are earned along with Your father that only you have limited right.

Now I realise after reading reply from shri. sanjeev desai , that even parents cannot be trusted, if they have uttered orally.Thank you for advice.If I had known underplays of my dad earlier, I would have silently slipped out.Hope this forum will help me on my future moves. I heartily wish all those who are behind this site in resolving problems.
