Dispute resolution and inheritance tax management
Our experience in the mediation of family disputes allows us to facilitate dialogue between the beneficiaries, seeking to reach an agreement that respects the will of the testator and the rights of all parties involved. We focus on finding amicable solutions that prevent protracted and costly litigation. When mediating, we consider not only the letter of the law, but also the context and family relationships, ensuring that the distribution of assets strengthens rather than divides the ties.
Tax advice on inheritance and donations
In addition to mediation, we offer detailed advice on the tax implications of receiving or making an inheritance or gift. Tax laws can be complex and vary according to region and type of asset. Our team will guide you through the tax aspects of inheritance, helping you to understand how inheritance and gift taxes apply to your particular case. We look for strategies to minimise the tax burden, exploring all tax exemptions and deductions available under current law.
For example, we advise you on how and when to apply acceptance with benefit of inventory, a legal option that allows heirs not to be personally liable for the deceased’s debts beyond the value of the inherited assets. We also provide guidance on the possible consequences of refusing an inheritance and best practices for making gifts that meet your financial and personal objectives, ensuring that these acts of generosity do not cause you unexpected tax problems.

In these cases, the deceased has left a will that specifies how his or her assets are to be distributed among the heirs. Managing this type of inheritance involves ensuring that the will is valid and that the testator’s last wishes are carried out.
They happen when a person dies without leaving a will. The inheritance law of the country or state concerned dictates how assets are to be distributed among the next of kin, following an order of priority established by law.
This type of case involves the transfer of assets from one person to another while the donor is alive. Gifts may be taxable, depending on the value of the assets transferred and local legislation.
In these cases, special management is required to protect the interests of minors, often involving the intervention of legal guardians or administrators until the beneficiaries reach the age of majority.
These arise when one or more interested parties challenge the validity of a will on grounds such as the testator’s mental capacity, the undue influence of third parties, or the authenticity of the document.
