Inheritance law

Inheritance law covers all the stages involved in the allocation and devolution of the deceased's assets to his or her legal or appointed heirs and legatees.

DGM assists its clients in drawing up or amending their wills to ensure that their last wishes are respected, from both a practical and a legal point of view, by proposing appropriate estate planning that takes into account the possible tax implications, both locally and internationally, and by using the appropriate instruments available.

Our lawyers also advise and assist heirs, individually or collectively, in the preparation or execution of the partition, in connection with the implementation of security measures by the authorities to ensure the devolution, as well as in the event of contestation of a last will and testamentary dispositions, inheritance of undeclared assets or recourse by the disposing person to entities such as foundations or trusts.
