Assistance on cross-border succession

Over the last year, we have assisted numerous individual clients with international inheritance situations, where assets were left in EU and non-EU jurisdictions. 

Where there are valuable assets left by a decedent (whether in the context of a will or without one – so-called intestacy), there often arise complex legal questions and unfortunately at times, there are also disputes. 

A command of the factual details, the applicable law and a network of contacts in the relevant jurisdiction concerned are crucial to acting quickly and competently in ensuring the equitable distribution of the assets.
