If you keep close watch on the case and do not sign on any petition without knowing its true meaning may avoid such chance. Good luck.

Yes, your mother may file a civil suit for partition and possession before civil court and also file an application for temporary injunction under order 39 Rule 1&2 of CPC.

Choose the advocate who is pure professional and watched on him and read all the applications or documents before signing, at any stage if you think that there is something wrong doing then change the advocate and engaged another one if your choice.

If you have strong evidence against that advocates then you may file a complaint t against those advocates for professional misconduct.

Your mother being one of the legal heirs of your grandfather, has full rights to claim her share and separate possession f her share in the property let behind by her father who is reported to have died intestate.

She can claim an equal share at par with her siblings.

Any mistake or collude with opp advocate and leads to weakening of case.can this be corrected by taking notice to judge.or any action can be taken on these advocates.Because huge offer from opp party may change the cases.

If you suspect the integrity of your advocate, you can abruptly terminate his services and engage another advocate or if you know the legal procedures, you can take power of attorney in your name and fight the case as party in person on behalf of your mother.

If the provision of law is clear that your mother is entitled for a legitimate share in her father's proeprty, then let any witness give any deposition against her, the court will go by law and allot her rightful share in the property.

If the judgment is coming agaisnt her then you may prefer an appeal based on the facts and law to get justice through appellate court.

statement of your witness in cross examination does weaken your case 

 

mere written statement thst she did under coercion would not help you

You have in original query stated that it was your father self acquired property 

 

2) during mother lifetime you have no share in said property 

 

3) it is not ancestral property

The ancestral nature of property will extinguish after your mother inheriting it.

After that it becomes your mother's own and absolute property. 

Neither you nor anyone can claim any share in it as a right at least not during the lifetime of your mother.
