Property Lawyers for Illegal Occupation of Property in Punjab, India
Indian laws provide significant judicial protection to possessors, regardless of whether they are the rightful owner, to safeguard against unlawful acts that may infringe on possession rights. In India, possession is defined as the physical control over a property or land in question. For Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), this issue can become even more serious, as they often rely on friends or family members to manage their properties while living abroad. Unfortunately, some of these individuals may exploit the situation, using forged documents to claim ownership of the property as their own.
At Wazir Solicitors, we specialize in representing NRIs facing property disputes and illegal occupation issues in India. Our experienced legal team is well-equipped to handle property litigation, follow-up police complaints, and take necessary action to secure your rights. We have been successfully providing these services for years, helping clients navigate complex legal systems and ensuring that their properties are protected from unlawful possession.
When dealing with cases of illegal possession, both civil and criminal remedies may need to be pursued. The Punjab state government has taken proactive steps in this regard by establishing NRI-Police Wing Headquarter in Mohali, which have jurisdiction across the state. These NRI Police Stations in all over Punjab are overseen by an Inspector General of Police (IGP), who serves as the Nodal Officer for NRI-related property disputes. Currently, there are 11 dedicated NRI police stations in Punjab, under the direct supervision of the IGP in Mohali. These stations are empowered to transfer cases and take swift action to protect NRI interests.
In addition to police complaints, judicial intervention can also be sought. In such cases, NRIs can seek a judicial directive from a competent court to instruct the police to take appropriate action. This process typically involves filing a private complaint in court, which we handle on behalf of our clients. Our legal team offers comprehensive support in filing, representing, and monitoring such complaints, ensuring that your rights are protected throughout the process. We act on behalf of NRIs on their instructions, allowing us to challenge illegal possession through litigation and secure the restoration of legal ownership.
Our law firm also offers mediation and out-of-court settlement options for NRIs facing illegal property occupation. If an amicable resolution is desired, we can engage in direct negotiations with the possessor, always with the approval and consent of the NRI client. Our goal is to resolve disputes efficiently while protecting your legal rights and interests. We strive to ensure that our clients' properties are restored and that they receive fair compensation in cases of unlawful occupation.
