Inheritance and compulsory portion law, probate proceedings,
succession in property rights
We advise you on your last will and testament (e.g. will or bequest; revocation) and draw up last wills and testaments for you, represent your interests in probate proceedings and proceedings relating to inheritance law, including compulsory portion (supplementary) proceedings, and advise you on other issues relating to inheritance and bequests – in particular on the following topics:
- representation in probate proceedings (including choice of type of declaration of inheritance, partition of estate actions or partition of estate agreements) and
- after the probate of the estate in proceedings against the heir(s) to assert compulsory portion (supplementary) claims
- drafting or amending wills, including revoking a will
- renunciation of inheritance/renunciation of compulsory portions in advance
Especially, the addition and deduction of lifetime gifts for the correct determination of the compulsory portion (it is determined which lifetime transfers of assets by the testator are to be considered for the determination of the compulsory portion) often lead to complex situations in which legal assistance is simply indispensable.
