About Property Law
What I Do
I'm Narayana Rao, and I've been handling property law matters in Bengaluru for about 19 years now. My approach is simple - I try to keep things clear and cut out the confusion. Whether you're buying, selling, or stuck in a dispute, I make sure your side is protected.
Where I Help
- Give solid legal opinions before you jump into any property deal. That means I go through all the papers - title deeds, sale agreements, encumbrance certificates - to spot any trouble before it starts.
- Help with the paperwork and registration. Drafting sale deeds, gift deeds, and making sure stamp duty and registration fees are sorted. I deal with the Sub-Registrar’s office so you don’t have to run around.
- Handle court work if things go sideways. I take up civil court cases like partition suits, property ownership fights, or landlord-tenant matters. Sometimes, a good settlement outside court saves everyone headache, and I’ll suggest that if it makes sense.
How I Work
Clients tell me I don’t sugarcoat things. I’m straight about what’s possible and what’s not. Each case gets my full attention - I know these aren’t small issues. If you want someone who’ll dig into the details and has your back for things like title search lawyer Bangalore or real estate dispute resolution, that’s what I do.
