German Inheritance Lawyer: Estate Planning
Some inheritance law issues will arise before a testator’s death and it is vital to get the right legal advice in such matters. It must be noted that there are complications inherent in drafting wills and in estate planning, as there are certain formalities which must be observed to ensure that the will is valid. Professional assistance with drafting a final testament can ensure that the following questions are answered:
- Who should my heirs be and how are they to receive their inheritance?
- Can I transfer my assets to my spouse or children under favourable conditions during my lifetime?
- How can I ensure that after my death, everything happens the way I envisioned?
Our experienced and accomplished inheritance lawyer, Dr Thomas Bichat, is available and ready to answer all of these questions and much more. Through a personal meeting, he will advise you on how you can best fulfil your wishes and ideas regarding your will and final testament.
