What is a legal title opinion?
A written opinion by an advocate on the title to a property: who holds it, how the title came to them, and whether anything stands against it, such as a mortgage, a case or a gap in the chain. It is signed, and it is the advice you act on.
Who writes the opinion?
One of our empanelled advocates, whose practice is property and title work. The advocate examines the title and signs the Advocate-Signed Title Search Report.
What does a title opinion cost?
It is quoted per matter. Send your documents on WhatsApp and we reply with an engagement letter that states the scope of work, the time and the quotation. Nothing starts until you accept it.
What do I need to send?
Whatever you hold: the sale deed, the encumbrance certificate, the Record of Rights, or only the village and the khata or plot number. Say on WhatsApp what you need the opinion on.
Do I need an opinion, or is the AI Land Risk Check Report enough?
For a first check of the documents you hold, take the AI report: it reads them, flags what needs a closer look and cites every finding to its page, but it is not a legal opinion. Before you pay, register or lend, take the lawyer's report: an advocate's signed opinion on the title.
Can the opinion cover more than title?
Where the matter runs past title, such as succession, partition, an adverse claim or a disputed mutation, say so on WhatsApp, and it is scoped in the engagement letter before you commit.
