Inheritance

Inheritance is a transfer of property rights, duties and certain personal non-property rights of a deceased natural person to his or her heirs by law or (and) heirs by will. In order to receive an inheritance, the heir must accept it; the heirs can share or abandon the inheritance and can implement other successor rights. However, it is often the case that, in certain circumstances, heirs do not accept inheritance in time and there are disputes over wills, acceptance of inheritance, etc., so inheritance becomes a long and complex process often requiring the assistance of a qualified lawyer. Therefore, our lawyers are ready to:

  • Advise on any inheritance law issues;
  • If necessary, help representing clients in notary offices on inheritance issues;
  • Represent clients in negotiations between successors, authorities and institutions;
  • Prepare procedural documents and represent in courts at all levels for the settlement of inheritance disputes (regarding the establishment of the fact of legality of adoption of inheritance, renewing the deadline of the adoption of inheritance, disputing the wills and the succession facts and certificates, establishing the compulsory share of inheritance, obtaining a court permit to receive inheritance on behalf of a minor child / invalid person, etc.).
