Inheritance law

Our firm assists clients in settling French and international estates.

In particular, we can assist in organizing the transfer of assets in advance or support heirs or beneficiaries of wills in what can be complex procedures.

The role of the lawyer is therefore one of cooperation and coordination with the various parties involved in the succession process (notaries, bankers, insurers, co-heirs, asset managers, real estate agents, trustees, etc.).

Aware of the existence of numerous deadlock situations, we help heirs resolve any difficulties they may encounter, particularly with other beneficiaries, through conciliation or negotiation where appropriate, while being in the best position to defend their rights when legal proceedings are justified or imposed on them.

With solid expertise in private international law and working in several languages (French, English, Spanish, etc.), we regularly handle international inheritance cases, both for heirs residing outside France and in situations where the estate is distributed across several countries.
