Inheritance law in South Tyrol – legal and tax advice combined

Those wishing to transfer assets to the next generation often have more room for planning than they realise, provided succession is addressed in good time. We support private individuals, business-owning families, shareholders and asset-holding structures in designing, implementing and administering inheritance solutions and arranging the succession of assets.

Forward-looking succession planning

Every family is different. An effective succession plan must be tailored to the specific personal and family circumstances, taking legal, tax and family considerations into account. We advise on wills, family agreements for business transfers, lifetime gifts, forced-heirship rights, matrimonial property regimes and business succession. International assets and cross-border family situations are also included in the planning.

Administration of estates

Following a death, we support heirs and beneficiaries with the legal and tax administration of the estate. This includes filing the inheritance declaration with the Revenue Agency, determining the order of succession, applying to the court for a certificate of inheritance, registering transfers of real estate in the land register and cadastre, dividing the estate, and dissolving communities of heirs.

When disputes arise

Not every succession proceeds smoothly. In inheritance and family-law disputes concerning forced-heirship claims, wills, inheritance shares, lifetime gifts, the division of estates or estate administration, we represent our clients out of court and, where necessary, before the courts.
