Dear Client,
Yes, parents can generally disinherit a son from their self-acquired property by executing a valid, registered Will, as they possess complete power of disposal over the property. Therefore, a daughter-in-law does not usually possess any right in respect of the property belonging to her in-laws while obtaining a divorce. Nevertheless, mere disowning of the son does not amount to completely protecting the property from residence claims because, as per the PWDVA, a daughter-in-law can still exercise her legal right to stay in a shared household, though she cannot claim ownership. I hope this answer helps. If you have any further query kindly do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you
