NRI Law Firm for Succession Certificates and Legal Solutions

India’s Premier NRI Law Firm for Succession Certificates & Legal Solutions

For Non-Resident Indians, the emotional burden of losing a family member is often compounded by the daunting complexity of managing inheritance laws from thousands of miles away. Navigating India’s legal system to claim rightful assets—such as bank balances, shares, and securities—requires specific expertise and a trusted partner on the ground. This is where Legal Light Consulting excels.

We have established a formidable reputation as one of India’s best NRI law firms, with a dedicated team of expert lawyers who specialize in simplifying these complex processes for our global clientele. Our focus is on providing clarity, efficiency, and unwavering support during difficult times.

Understanding the Key to Inheritance: The Succession Certificate

A Succession Certificate is a critical legal document issued by an Indian court (under the Indian Succession Act, 1925) that grants legal heirs the authority to claim and transfer a deceased person’s movable assets. These assets include:

• Funds in bank accounts (savings, FDs)

• Investments in stocks, mutual funds, and equities

• Insurance proceeds without a nominee

• Debts and securities

Financial institutions in India mandate this certificate to prevent fraudulent claims and ensure assets are transferred to the verified legal heirs, especially when the deceased has not left a will (intestate).

The Challenge for NRIs and Our Solution

The traditional process of obtaining a Succession Certificate or Probate can be overwhelming for an NRI. It involves determining the correct court jurisdiction, filing a detailed petition, publishing newspaper notices, and attending multiple court hearings—a process that can take five to seven months.
