At Mas & Associates, we bring clarity and strategy to complex property matters, offering reliable representation for individuals, families, and businesses alike. Common Types of Property Disputes in Pakistan Property issues can arise from various situations, such as: Illegal possession or encroachment Disputed inheritance and succession rights Fake documentation or forged property titles Breach of agreement to sell or purchase Partition of jointly owned property Eviction or tenancy-related disputes Each scenario requires a careful review of evidence, documents, and relevant laws — and timely legal action can often prevent escalation. Your Legal Rights in a Property Dispute Pakistani law offers several remedies for those involved in property disputes: 1. Filing a Civil Suit If your property rights are violated, you can file a civil suit for declaration, possession, injunction, or damages under the Civil Procedure Code and Specific Relief Act. 2. Legal Notice A legal notice can be sent to the opposing party as a formal warning or demand, often resolving the issue without entering litigation. 3. Succession Certificate In cases of inheritance, a succession certificate or letter of administration from the court is required to claim property rights legally. 4. Stay Orders and Injunctions If someone attempts to forcibly occupy or sell your property, you can seek a temporary or permanent injunction to stop the action through a court order. 5. Criminal Proceedings In cases of fraud, forgery, or illegal occupation, criminal charges can also be initiated under relevant sections of the Pakistan Penal Code.
