Hi everyone, I need legal advice regarding a family property issue.
My maternal grandfather (nana) built a house. After his death, the property seems to have been transferred to my maternal grandmother (nani). My nana and nani have 6 children โ 3 sons (my mamas) and 3 daughters (including my mom).
Now, my mamas are threatening my mom and telling her to give up her 1/6th share in the house. However, my mom wants to claim her rightful share. We are worried they might try to illegally sell the property without her consent or forge documents.
I have a few questions:
What steps can we take to protect my momโs share in the property?
Can my mamas sell the house without my mom’s consent?
Should we file some kind of legal notice or stay order?
How do we officially claim my mom’s 1/6th share?
Is there any law under which my mom can claim and secure her share?
We don’t want any fights, but we want to secure my momโs rights properly. Any advice on how to proceed legally would be very helpful.
Thank you!
