Inheritance disputes
Unfortunately, inheritance disputes are not uncommon. There are numerous reasons that can lead to inheritance disputes.
The community of heirs, for example, is very prone to disputes. The community of heirs is a compulsory community of all co-heirs and is designed from the outset to be divided after the estate has been distributed. Disputes often arise here about the specific distribution between the co-heirs.
Disputes are also conceivable if a testator has made dispositions upon death and there are uncertainties regarding the interpretation and meaning of these. In addition, the testator's descendants often argue about the consideration of lifetime gifts or other donations.
In other cases, persons entitled to a compulsory portion have been disinherited and excluded from the succession. They then pursue interests that run counter to those of the heirs.
