INHERITANCE LAW

Inheritance & Estates, gifts and wills

After the loss come the questions. We help you answer them.

A death brings not only grief but also legal and tax obligations. Who inherits what? What about the deceased’s debts? What if a will favors — or disadvantages — one of the heirs? What are your rights as a forced heir when you receive too little? Can you be disinherited? What if a family member has made off with everything? These questions arise sooner than expected and deserve a clear answer.

We assist heirs with the division of estates, including when family relationships are strained. We also act for heirs who believe that gifts or testamentary provisions exceed the legal limits — the so-called reduction of gifts that infringe inheritance rights.
