Help please!

My wife has an uncle in portugal and there are no closer dependents.

She has never met him,and we were wondering the fittest method of not to be seen as money grabbers but making sure we have claims to this sizeable estate.
Of course we should go there,but naturally we want to be nice and cordial and not petty.
Also, is there a way of securing our claim without him being pressed?
This is delicate ofcourse,I need help

However they live in daman and have all there property in daman.They do not have children. They have been informed that unless there marriage is regestered in Daman the wife cannot inherit the property of the husband after him.Is it true? If so what is the solution? If they were to register there marriage now after all these years will it be acceptable? Please advise.

My husbands father died about 30yrs ago leaving no will. Would he be able to lay a claim on the house that he owned in portugal even though it has been for more than 20 yrs & he does not have any proof. He was 11 at the time and his mom did not fight or ask about the property as she wanted nothing to do with her husbands family. We have reason to believe that his fathers's family claimed the property for themselves ?
