My share in property

1.What is the nature of the property that your father had owned at the time of his death ( ancestral / self acquired)...?

2. Did he die intestate  ( without making a will)..?

3. you will have no say on the child being adopted by your brother and his wife.

The answers to the first two questions are necessary to give a proper legal opinion.

The nature of the property that my father had owned at the time of his death is self acquired. He died intestate suddenly due to heart attack ( without making a will)

if the property is self acquired then you have every right to claim and also enquire with your mother if any other property is there on your father and mother names

as above you said 20 acres 

1 father

2 mother

3. brother

4. his wife

each of them will have a share of 5 acres and you can claim from the share of your father and a share in your mother 

thank you for your reply.

i also want to know that we have one house  and also 8 acres of farm land in my mother name can i get any share in that.

one more thing is that at the time of my father funeral my brother brought some papers and asked me sign on that and he said that they are insurance claim papers but i have not read any of them and signed at that time as i am in deep sorrow and now i fear that any of them may be related to property

will be there any problem if they relate to property if i file a suit for claiming my share?
