What you should know about inheritance law

Many people shy away from the thought of their own death and the consequences for the bereaved. You also think you have enough time to deal with it. Even if you have a good chance of living a long time, something can happen to you every day. Younger people should therefore also consider whether their assets should be inherited as they see fit after their death. If arrangements regarding the estate are not made or are made incorrectly, there are often disputes between relatives or the inheritance cases even end up in court.
