Overseas Wills
The subject of death is something that is never discussed when buying foreign real estate however, this is an area which should not be dismissed especially if you do not want your dependents to be left with a host of problems.
Although you may have amended your existing personal Will a legally recognised Will in the country of purchase is strongly recommended.
Think for a moment about the following scenario. You have spent thousands of euros on foreign real estate and something happens to you. Your dependents are left with a host of problems in the country you have purchased and in addition you could have family members who might contest your overseas real estate?
In addition to Wills, overseas lawyers can provide comprehensive legal services and consultations in all major practice areas including:
- real estate transactions
- commercial and company law
- privatisation and foreign investments
- protection of investments
- mortgages
- pledges and other securities
- tax law and customs law
- family law and criminal law
