- <\/i><\/span>\n
What taxes are due on inheritances (e.g. real estate)?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

- <\/i><\/span>\n

- <\/i><\/span>\n
Are there differences in inheritance law (Austria vs. international)?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>
Questions about wills & disinheritance:<\/p>\n<\/div>
- <\/i><\/span>\n
What happens if I don’t have a will?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
- <\/i><\/span>\n
How and under what circumstances can I disinherit someone?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

<\/div><\/div>What we would like to pass on to you<\/h3><\/div>If you inherit something, you should have all the facts carefully checked: What is my compulsory portion? Were there any gifts from other heirs during my lifetime? How do these affect my compulsory portion? Obtain all the important information and seek detailed advice from your lawyer before you agree to any settlements, for example. <\/p>\n
In practice, we also often see that formerly good family relationships quickly take a turn for the worse when it comes to inheritance. Even long-lasting disputes and disagreements are not uncommon. As inheritance law proceedings can quickly become expensive, we advise you to take out legal expenses insurance or to check whether your existing insurance also covers inheritance law. <\/p>\n
A final point is internationality. If someone dies abroad or had property there, the question quickly arises as to which inheritance law should be applied or where the probate proceedings should be conducted. Questions relating to exemption limits or double taxation agreements are also often an inheritance law issue. Your lawyer should therefore be familiar with European inheritance law and\/or have law firms abroad. <\/p>\n
As an inheritance lawyer from Vienna, we are familiar with the law in Austria, but are also active throughout Europe. Thanks to our many partner law firms abroad, we can also have documents etc. checked. <\/p>\n<\/div>
Free initial consultation<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Why wills are so important<\/p><\/h3><\/div>
A will is important to prevent misunderstandings, ambiguities and disputes from arising in the first place. This saves your relatives additional stress factors – especially as an inheritance is always accompanied by grief over the death of a loved one. In this already difficult time, you can at least take some of the pressure off your relatives by making a will. <\/p>\n
You also know that everything will be arranged according to your wishes. Because if you do not have a will, the legal succession comes into force – which may not be in accordance with your wishes. <\/p>\n
A will therefore helps both the deceased and their relatives. As a lawyer for inheritance law from Vienna, we support heirs and anyone who wants to arrange their succession. We take care of estate planning, advise on formal requirements for wills and enforce claims. <\/p>\n<\/div>
