Comprehensive advice on drafting wills tailored to your family, assets, and international circumstances.
A will is the key legal instrument for arranging an estate in accordance with the testator’s wishes. Careful drafting tailored to your personal circumstances is essential to ensure your wishes are carried out.
We advise on all forms of wills: an open will executed before a notary, a closed will, and a holographic will. Each type has its own advantages and drawbacks, which we assess in light of your particular circumstances.
Acceptance and distribution of the estate are crucial stages in the probate process, as this is when the required legal and technical steps must be carried out. This includes valuing the estate, distributing the assets in accordance with the will or the law, handing over specific bequests, and safeguarding forced heirship rights—all subject to a rigorous assessment of the tax implications.
When there are multiple heirs, dividing the estate can be a complex process. We advise on reaching agreements and, where necessary, on managing court proceedings for the judicial division of the estate.
