Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can my elderly parents get maintenance even from NRI children?
Yes. Under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, children — including NRIs — are legally obligated to maintain parents. Courts can issue maintenance orders enforceable in India, and non-compliance has serious legal consequences.
2. What if relatives have fraudulently transferred my parents' property?
We file suits for cancellation of fraudulent sale deeds or transfer documents, along with criminal complaints for cheating and forgery. Interim injunctions can be obtained quickly to prevent further transfers or sale.
3. Can I handle this from abroad without my parents travelling to court?
Yes. We manage all court appearances on behalf of your parents. Through Power of Attorney and our representation, your parents need not appear in court for routine hearings.
