Ancestral property

Dear Querist,

Since your mother has already executed a will in your brother's name. If he is able to prove the same in a court of law and the same is free from suspicious circumstances - there would be nothing much that we could do. However, having said that - we can always assail your mother's capacity to having willed the property or infact your father's when he gave the property to your mother. Your father, if i am not wrong on the facts, recieved the property in inheritance from your grandfather. That would make the property ancestral in your hands and not his seperate property which he could have transferred in your mother's favour. the Children i.e you people had a birth right in that property an equal share - called an undivided coparcenory interest. 

Feel free to ask for any clarifications. 

Hope my answer helps ...Best of Luck - 

Thanks. Rightly the property in question was inherited by my father along with the business interests and not at his own. How do I go about to claim my share? Pl advise.
