Inheritance Law / Estate Planning

Whether entrepreneur or private individual –we advise you not only on passing on your own assets to the next generation, but also on the distribution of inherited assets among the beneficiaries.

Taking into account your specific personal and economic situation, we draw up wills and inheritance contracts for you. In the process, we keep a close eye not only on the rights of any beneficiaries to a statutory part but also on the fiscal consequences of the transfers of assets.

Should you yourself be entitled to rights from an inheritance, we will support you in the enforcement of your claims as an heir, legatee, or beneficiary of a charge or statutory part. We also gladly offer our counsel on your rights and obligations as an executor of a will, in particular within the framework of disputes among joint heirs.
