Safety at your side

Inheritance law, wills, compulsory portions and estates in Kiel, Hamburg and Flensburg

Inheritance law is a sensitive and complex area of law that poses significant emotional and legal challenges for many people. Planning for the succession of assets or receiving news of an inheritance often raises numerous questions. CausaConcilio provides the answers. Our specialized attorneys represent you both in and out of court throughout Germany in all matters relating to inheritance law.

Wills – Legally secure planning for the future

The question of how to draft a will correctly is often a central issue. We provide comprehensive advice on individual wording, different types of wills, and the legal consequences of each provision. The common goal is to structure your estate in such a way that your personal wishes are carried out while avoiding potential conflicts between the heirs.

Right to a compulsory portion – knowing and enforcing your claims

The right to a compulsory portion is of central importance in inheritance law. Many testators want to freely determine their succession, but certain relatives are entitled to a compulsory portion under the law. We clarify the legal options and limitations for you, examine claims to a compulsory portion, and consistently enforce these on behalf of both the heirs and those entitled to a compulsory portion.

Estate planning and asset succession

We are also at your side when it comes to complex estate planning. Whether it’s the management of larger assets, the integration of companies into succession planning, or the protection of real estate values, our expertise ensures that economic and family interests are reconciled. In doing so, we take care to minimize tax burdens and create sustainable structures for future generations.

Conflict resolution and inheritance disputes

Conflicts and disputes in inheritance law are not uncommon. Disagreements over the interpretation of a will, disputes among communities of heirs, or disagreements over compulsory portion claims can lead to lengthy proceedings. CausaConcilio helps to resolve such conflicts efficiently and in a goal-oriented manner. We focus on out-of-court solutions, but also represent your interests resolutely in court if necessary.

Anticipated succession, gifts, and inheritance contracts

In addition, we provide comprehensive advice on anticipated succession, gifts, and inheritance contracts. Especially in entrepreneurial families or in the case of larger assets, it is crucial to create clear structures at an early stage in order to secure the future of the family assets and ensure legal peace across generations.

Execution of wills – externally administered estates

In individual cases, the inherited estate is administered by an executor. Here, too, disputes and legal issues may arise. We support you in disputes with an appointed executor, check the legality of the respective measures, and, if necessary, also carry out dismissal proceedings.
