Legal heir and succession paperwork for NRIs, handled in India

Most NRI inheritance matters are not disputes. They are paperwork nobody completed. A flat still in a late father’s name, a bank asking for heirship proof, siblings in three countries who agree but have nothing on paper. We do the paperwork and coordinate with an independent advocate where a court order is needed.

Virtual Advo is a paralegal and documentation service, not a law firm. We prepare applications, file with government offices and follow up. Where a matter needs an advocate, a chartered accountant or a registered trade mark agent, we tell you upfront and you engage that professional directly. Government fees are charged at actuals.
