Legal Question in Family Law in India

Re: Indian succession act, 1925

There is no problem if your wife is one of the witnesses in the will; there is no legal bar as such.

Re: Indian succession act, 1925

Witness to any Agreement contract can be any person. The only criteria is that he should be major and competent to contract. He should be independent person to the contract.

Yes your wife can be a witness to the Will.

Re: Indian succession act, 1925

if there is no dispute between you brother and sister, nothing going to affect the will or whatever

Re: Indian succession act, 1925

Answer to query No-1 :

You are wrong as there is no bar under any law rather it is better to get Will witness by any family members but he/she should not be beneficiary of the will.

Query No-2:

If your wife has witnessth the Will than in that event this will not effect your right or share which you are getting by the said Will.

Query No 3 :

No answer is required as you are free to engage any competent lawyer of your city. If you are residing in delhi or the property under Will is situated in Delhi than contect me or any lawyer of your choice.

Re: Indian succession act, 1925

your advocate is lacking knowledge of law and is misguiding you.Any body who is major,of sound mind is competent to be witness.so any body can be witness.Ask you lawyer to show any law that your wife can not be witness or that only beneficiary can be witness in case of WILL.

Re: Indian succession act, 1925

There is absolutely no cause for you to worry. The witness part is not going to affect you adversely in any manner.
