Can an NRI fight a court case in India without being present?
Yes, an NRI can appoint a representative or lawyer through a legally executed Power of Attorney to handle court proceedings in India. Most civil, property, and family matters can be managed without the NRI’s physical presence.
How can NRIs protect their property in India from illegal possession?
NRIs can protect their property through legal actions including filing for injunctions, civil suits for possession, and police complaints under applicable IPC sections. Engaging an experienced NRI property lawyer in India at the earliest sign of encroachment is critical to preventing further loss.
What is Power of Attorney and why is it important for NRIs?
A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document that authorizes a trusted person or legal professional to act on behalf of the NRI in property, legal, and financial matters in India. For NRIs, a properly drafted, notarized, apostilled, and registered POA is essential for managing legal matters remotely.
Can NRIs buy or sell property in India?
