Property Dispute

A property dispute under Indian law typically arises when there is a disagreement over the ownership, possession, or transfer of property. Such disputes can occur in cases of inheritance, partition, or transfer of property, and may involve issues like fraudulent transactions, unclear titles, or family disagreements. Under the Indian Succession Act, 1925, disputes often arise in the absence of a valid will or when legal heirs disagree on their share of inherited property. In cases of joint family property, disputes may arise under the Hindu Succession Act, 1956 or Hindu Undivided Family (HUF)laws.

Additionally, the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 governs property transactions and can lead to disputes over the sale, lease, or mortgage of property. Resolving property disputes typically involves approaching the civil court, and in some cases, seeking a succession certificate or probate. Disputes can also be settled through alternative dispute resolution methods like mediation or arbitration.
