Law of succession regulates the legal matters regarding the estate of the deceased.
We advise and represent you on all legal questions that arise after the succession:
What rights and obligations do you have as a heir? How do I receive a certificate of inheritance? What is to be considered if the inheritance is over-indebted? How is a co-consortium dealt with? What claims do I have as a legatee? What rights do I have in case of disinheritance?
It is important to take precautions even before the succession. The statutory law of succession does not offer a succession solution tailored to the respective family and financial circumstances. This succeeds only if you transfer your assets during your lifetime (partially) to the successor generation. It is also possible to individually regulate the succession, either by will or by inheritance contract.
In this context, in particular family law, corporate law and tax law aspects will also be taken into account.
