Inheritance law has traditionally focused on protecting family members in the event of the death of a family member. Everyone will encounter this very complex and sometimes difficult subject at some point in their lives. For example, when you are named as an heir, or when you have to settle an estate as an executor. Who actually inherits and do the heirs have to accept the estate? What are the consequences of a deceased person’s debts and obligations; do these continue to exist? How can an estate be settled and what conditions must be taken into account?

Inheritance law not only plays a role in family law, but also in areas such as asset management and distribution when clients die or become involved in the settlement of an estate. This includes banks, insurers, trust offices, and trustees or administrators. Knowledge of inheritance law helps in drawing up wills and anticipating certain specific provisions of the law.

Inheritance law has many mandatory provisions for all parties involved, but it also offers sufficient scope to deal with your estate creatively. At True Lawyers, we can help you as a company, executor, or heir with issues relating to inheritance law.
